Panoply of Posies  - 250 x 250

 

A garden delights in Quaker style motifs with a history,

this  design has been inspired by collections of antique

geometric motifs gathered a century ago from needlework

 found in rural cottage households in Switzerland.   These

beautiful floral figures are reminiscent of wild flowers, ferns,

herbs and grasses that blanket the meadows and hills of the

rural landscape. 

 

Model is stitched on Zweigart's light khaki Davosa.

 Panoply of Peacocks - 257 x 353

Definition: Panoply - a wide-ranging and impressive array or display

Panoply of Peacocks is just that with dozens upon dozens of antique-style peacocks, twirling together in a kaleidoscope of peacock hued motifs reminiscent of Quaker medallions.



 
 
 
Creation - 286 x 240

Creation was stitched on 26 count raw linen by the designer

 and then almost a year later, painstakingly charted from the finished work.  Creation stirs both imagination and emotions with its swirling palette of storm cloud and sunrise colors. 

Various specialty stitches and bands make this an

intriguing stitch. 

 

  The model is stitched on 26 count raw linen, over two threads.  
 

 Feathers ‘n Fins” - 199 x 200

  This design is a medley of sea and sky motifs including mermaids juggling pearls and sea horses frolicking with swans.  The model was stitched on Wichelt's natural light brown 40 ct with Crescent Colours floss.
