One more embroidery block finished!

By Denise Russell

The kittens are done! I added some grass and flowers to the block… I mixed two strands of DMC floss – dark gray and almost silver for the kittens, amber for the eyes, dark gray for the whiskers. Here are the other blocks I’ve done so far: giraffes and puppies, elephants, pigs, horses and snakes.

French knots are so much easier to make when one uses a hoop… Depending on the work I will not use it, as when working with wool or photographs. I will probably complete two or more blocks this week because this embroidery project does not put too much strain on my left wrist. Yeah!
