My daughter asked me to embroider her sneakers... really tough on the fingers, but she was thrilled with them!

These teeny tiny vegetables were stitched to the finest detail - some stuffed, some worked around a tiny whittled wooden shape like the butternut. This Lady's amazing attention to detail astounded me. 

I loved this project. A few of the Ladies worked on these designs. We had such fun with the colours even though the variety of stitches wasn't that stimulating. My favourite Chameleon Threads were mostly used here. I was so excited to see I could get them here in the UK too. 

Many of our Ribbon Embroidery designs can be attributed to Di van Niekerk who kickstarted my Ribbon passion. You can find her at www.dicraft.com. She has the most beautiful hand-dyed ribbons money can buy!
