Hi Vivienne, I have just discovered your blog via somebody else’s blog (they go on ad infinitum – is that the phrase?). Anyway, I am new to blogging, but have started my own, simply to enable me to comment on other blogs! My friend Sharlee introduced me to it, and said how many fascinating things she had found, and now I have found them too. If you have a minute to check my blog, you will see that I collect antique linen, and also do some embroidery. I just love the old doilies and cloths where button hole stitch has been used to create flowers, so your sketches greatly appealed to me. I have many UFOs that didn’t come with instructions when I found them, so I tend to stumble through my own interpretation of stitches and colours, and sometimes it just does not look right. But as Isabelle is doing, I am going to try to save your sketches for future reference.
Kind regards,
Gina (Patra) in Melbourne.

Hi Isabelle, thanks for your comments. My head is full of ideas which tend to go away if I don’t put them on paper. Keep watching because I’ll be putting more drawings on as I do them. Glad they are of use to you.

Hi Vivienne, your two pages of drawings are a precious help for wanabee crazy stitchers. I’m saving them for future reference! Thank you so much for sharing them. You’re a talented drawer on top of your wonderful stitching!
