Two people, AnnMarie and Amy, are making designs using only French knots.
Barbara is working on a Celtic knot design with beautifully
muted colors and intricate stitches.
Rosalie is embroidering an apple on black felt - this is an early photo.
There are two other members of the class, SooKhim and Barbara,
but I didn't get good photos of their work - hopefully I'll get more soon.
I'm working on an embroidery of a little drawing I did - of course I had to add a cat!
Cairo, our instructor's parrot, visited the class and
I was lucky enough to have a visit with him! He sat on my hand for several minutes!
As always, we have a lot of laughs in our classes and I feel
fortunate to be part of them!
Hope you've had a great week!

It looks like you are having a great time. Your images of children are always so sweet:) And lucky you! A visit with Cairo!
Judy,
Seeing the piece using French Knots flooded me with memories. When I was a kid, I loved to do embroidery. I think I still have several pieces I did tucked away somewhere. As an adult, I designed and sold needlepoint canvases. I made Christmas Stockings for each of my children long before they were available in stores. Still have them today. Great memories. I don't do it now because it is so hard for me to thread the needles that it takes forever, but I love the end result.
Have a great time.

The embroidery class looks like so much fun! The blackwork is amazing considering a pattern isn't being followed. Your cute embroidery is lovely Judy. I can't wait to see the finshed cat too! x
Hello Judy!
Oh my it has been awhile since visiting your lovely blog. What beautiful embroidery work. I too love to stitch, so relaxing and the end result is something wonderful.
I also took a peek at a few back post, you have been busy making pretty! I'll be back soon I promise.

Wonderful, Judy! I noticed you were pinning a lot of embroidery on Pinterest and was looking forward to seeing some of your own. :)
Can't wait, also, to see photos from your show.
