kate_nepveu: quasi-botantical design stitched in green thread on cream fabric (blackwork)
[personal profile] kate_nepveu
The designer who created the blackwork patterns for, among other things, the bookmark in this icon has all her patterns on sale at Etsy for $2 each (unfortunately this is because she has to shut down her shop because of new regulations in Turkey, where she's from).

I know a few of you stitch and have admired her work before, so there you go.

(I still haven't been reading DW, sorry, and now I have to go prep for oral argument tomorrow)

Wow, some of those are glorious. I wonder whether I'll stitch these, but I'm happy to buy a couple of the patterns anyway. They're lovely just to look at in charted form, or I am easily entertained....

Gorgeous stuff - thank you for posting! I'm sorry she's having to close the shop.

Despite the fact that I'm managing one tiny cross-stitch ornament every 18 months and that I already have more patterns than I'll ever get around to, I may have to cave, because these are gorgeous.

Actually using my 20-year-old Caron Colors stash for something? The mind boggles!

I caved and bought two patterns, although odds are I'll never do them--they're pretty to look at!
