More work in progress

So I'm about 18 hours into this latest piece and I thought I would show you where I'm at.  First I stitched in the 'bare bones", that is, the lines in stem stitch.  Then I have used french knots and seed stitches of varying length to fill out the "body" of the nebula.


This shot shows the work on the frame.









Extreme close up shows the french knots with seed stitches in between.

Come and Meet Me in the Middle of the Air

This is my latest work.  It is the second in my Heaven and Earth Series and is titled "Come and Meet Me in the Middle of the Air".   It is my rendering of a nebula.  Worked in my usual hand dyed silk thread, I have added some bronze wing pigeon feathers for texture.
