Flower Needlekeeper...


NEEDLEKEEPER...
a place to keep your pins and needles.

I have pieced the flowers in hand dyed wool.
I then embellished the flowers with a variety of hand embroidery that includes...
Moss Stitch, Beaded Raised Chain Band, Couching, Needleweaving, Spider Web Stitch, French Knots, Satin Stitch and Heavy Chain Stitch.

The Needlekeeper is embellished with glass beads
