I have a new project to practice my embroidery stitches on. I’ve chosen pink, mauve & yellow to work in. If it works out well I might make it into a cushion for our granddaughter ( hence the pink)
Here’s my progress 
I’m attempting to practice covering up all those black lines & getting smooth edges.
It’s quite a fun design, isn’t it.
Not much done this time, just a bush, I’ve been busy at School & starting off my canvas work for the royal school of needlework.

Finally finished, it was made from some block found during the grand summer tidy up & sort out.
On Saturday our local ploughing match was held in a local field.
We enjoyed watching shire horses ploughing
And some steam ploughing 
At the other end you can just see the plough 
There were lots of modern & vintage tractors, along with dog, horse & falconry displays, with all the normal competitions, look at the size of that pumpkin 
The weather held out & was very warm for September.
Done a bit more to the cushion cover. I still need to track down some silver thread, that I’m rapidly running out of.
I finally chose a new SAL project to finish, the stitch a long I started with the frosted pumpkin. January & February’s were already finished. Yes, those are 3 billy goats. I hope to have that square finished by next time.

Just having a bit of a play around with coloured pencils. I thought this might make a good embroidery design.
What do you think?
