Mr Pringle


Christine did the residential course at Drumalis house, a weekend devoted to machine embroidery led by Carol Naylor. Heres a couple of pics of her work


The pieces were stitched on unprimed artists canvas in reverse - thick threads in the bobbin,and stitched"upside down" with heavy impasto type stitching. 

I particularly like the impressionist style of the top one.- (must have a go at this myself!)

Christine also sent a snap of Mr Pringle-
 a monkey made from a pair of socks- a real character.
