Sketchbook: Sheer Embroidery

Sketchbook Page

I wanted to experiment with embroidery on sheer fabric and since it was FOR my sketchbook I didn't really follow the tips for embroidering on sheer fabric

I used mostly long and short stitch and the challenge was to make the back as neat as the front, so NO KNOTS.

I glued an image from Art Forum Ad on the other page underneath.

Jafabrit's Art Collection

I treated myself to a ceramic piece by Lisa Golberg for my birthday and just out of the blue thought he should be called Sid Vicious, something about the beater on his head and being wicked in the kitchen (go figure, maybe some fruedian connection).

My son named my new ipod JafaPod LOL!
