Переглядів 5673 місяці тому
There are several ways to finish an embroidery hoop, but closing the back with felt can give your work a more refined look, while also providing a nice layer of protection. I've also included a trick/hack to getting the thread of your running stitch to stay tied tight when initially closing the back of your work.

And sort of…I’ve always loved creating art ever since I was a kid, and took a couple art classes in junior high where I did painting and collage, then I did ceramics in high school. I never really studied realism in depth during my schooling, but had always been inspired by artists who could paint like that! Many of my embroidery pieces are inspired by, or are recreations of old, antique oil paintings by plein air artists. And in studying their techniques and practicing a lot, I’ve come to learn a thing or two. ☺️
