new kit

loosley based on a lion in the rachester bestiary, although tbh a lot of medieval lions are much of a muchness, and worked in german brickstitch, silk and gold.

I really like him, blue and yellow is one of my favourite colour combinations, and I love how the white parts of the background pattern (taken from the hildeshiem cope) look like summer rain.

a new kit, currently residing in the “other medieval embroidery” category of the shop. there may eventually be a german brick stitch category, since I intend to make a few more designs, but I think we need at least four for a category

new kit, based on a c14th wallpainting from germany.

I ahve no idea whats going on here, but she seems to be having a jolly nice time

When I originally drafted the foruth luttrell fantasy, I deliberatly left a gap between hector and the harpies, but once they were sttiched it was too much negative space, so I found a red admiral in the psalet and bunged him in the gap

heloise is in inspirations magazine this month, her beloved is in the next issue,

I shipped to australia unframed due to wieght, and I really like the frame they’ve put on her – it’s different to what I would have used, darker, but it looks good
