French Knots Painting Complete!

 OK- it's official- I am addicted to this technique!  The richness of the surface and the subtle control you can achieve is remarkable.  It is so much like oil painting! 

 The edge of the piece is worth showing for the wonderful fullness that is achieved!

On to the next one!  And hopefully I soon I will be giving instructions on the Cross Stitch charts for how to use the charts as a guide to french knotting the patterns as well!

Cheers!

New pattern!

I have just released a new pattern- Pomegranates! This pattern is taken from a commission painting I did for a friend. She had the painting done for her parents for the Christmas Holiday last year.
I will be loading it on the website this weekend so you can order a chart soon! Www.ninestonesneedlework.com



Cheers!

Bulbs!

I thought maybe bulbs would add to the flower theme with a twist!
