Recently I have been messing about with embroidery. I don't know the names of the stitches or techniques as yet, but I am enjoying making pictures with my needle and silks. I made these little pieces for a CWA (Country Women's Association) craft competition and I am fairly proud of them.

A scythe and wheat sheaf. |
I don't think they will win any prizes, but I have really enjoyed making them and think I may have to learn more about embroidery.
