Needlepoint 12.25" x 9.5", December 2018. Pillow 16" x 16", Summer 2019.
Needlepoint on 13-mesh canvas, Planet Earth Fiber 100% silk yarn. Fairfield poly-fil pillow form, cotton fabric.
This design was based on motifs from North African carpets and textiles. Did lots of work with graph paper to make sure all the different elements would line up nicely. Caught a few stitching mistakes in time to fix them; missed several others and had to stitch over them.
