I have just uploaded a photo of my latest project... "The Phoenix",
designed by Louise Colgan. I started this in Guttermann silks, but was
really frustrated with how badly the thread behaved on my pillow...
constantly untwisting or throwing the hitches! And, I did not like the
colors I had used. So I cut the project off the pillow, and started
again, experimenting with an embroidery silk which I found. It is
called "Planet Earth Silk", and the colors are vibrant! Furthermore,
the thread is a two-ply with an S-twist, so behaves ever so much better!
I breathed a sigh of relief when the pins were all removed and the piece
didn't self-destruct!!
You can see a photo of it on Arachne's Flickr site, see address below...
