Seed of Torments

I think that's what I'm going to call this embroidery panel. I finished this section above and am now working on the tedious long & short stitch for Kahlo's shawl. I take breaks because I lose track of time and can sit and embroider for 4 hours straight. Last time I did that I ended up with tennis elbow.

I love how they used embroidery and quilting hoops, wooden beads all sprayed silver to make the headboard, totally cool. The bedspread is lacy filet crochet with diagonal stitches. I LOVE this bedroom, I WANT this bedroom lol! They even give instructions on how to make the lights, which I think have a very contemporary look to them.
