Ribbon embroidery - June & July 2007

I stitched one for Anne & Nick's silver wedding anniversary :)

I made this for Richard & Emily's wedding.  I really enjoyed working with the ribbons - quick n easy to do  :)



They both began life in an embroidery hoop. Sew tacking stitches to get the shape - then build up the flowers. Add beads or sequins or whatever you fancy :)  Monograms where first sketched on paper, then evolved, until they seemed balanced.
