Memento Mori in Eden


Here is a work in progress. It is to be a garden of Eden themed pillow. I will probably put skeletons in for Adam and Eve. I find skeleton embroideries to be very popular. The tree is all done in long and short stitch over chain stitch. Now I am adding some stylized leaves and flowers before I move on to the twisty old serpent. This is done on a recycled ground of creamy knit acrylic fabric. It is very soft and fuzzy.

Hi! Thank-you for visiting my blog yesterday and for the well wishes! I'm very happy to see your lovely painting blog and I can't wait to see how this embroidered piece turns out. I hope you will post it when it is finished? All the best, Christy
