Haunted Honeymoon Embroidery




I am starting a new, larger embroidery inspired by the papel picado ornaments of Mexico,mashed up with some Hungarian floral embroidery traditions. It is a skeleon horse and carriage driven by a dapper skeleton with a skeleton bride in the window. They are driving off in a flourish of flowers under the skull-faced moon.
