stitching away winter

embroidery from haiti




palm trees and sky

Not me. unfortunately . This stitched wall hanging was bought in Port au Prince, Haiti time ago. It includes varieties of chain stitch, stem stitch,up and down buttonhole, satin stitch, seed stitch and a stitch whose name i don't know,
parrots and pond
but it looks like crossed florentine in needlepoint, worked very close together. Note the delightful parrots and the pink sky. The tropics, sigh!
