Reposted from @rhianet⁠ ⁠ Way back in August I Reposted from @rhianet⁠ ⁠ Way back in August I enrolled on a City and Guilds Hand Embroidery course with the School of Stitched Textiles. I have just finished sewing the samples for Module 1. It feels like it's taken forever - I'm not very quick! I've really enjoyed stitching these and learned lots in the process. They are based on Lakeside Teasels by Angie Lewin.⁠ ⁠ .⁠ ⁠ What fantastic Stitch Samplers!!
Lynn Skordal has been described as a collage, embr Lynn Skordal has been described as a collage, embroidery and mixed media artist. It’s therefore no surprise that her work is eclectic; often made from stamps found in the street, vintage pictures, magazines and books. She uses whatever she finds and inspires her to create Munchesque dreamscapes or bizarre yet alluring alternate realities. All of which are designed to ‘alarm, startle or provoke.’⁠ ⁠ Despite her international success Lynn Skordal remains a private person. But thankfully, she agreed to talk to us about her work, inspiration and artistic process.⁠ ⁠ Take a look at this fascinating artists⁠ ⁠ https://www.sofst.org/lynn-skordal-alternate-reality/ or click the link in our bio

We love her beautiful description for her #stitchsampler⁠ ⁠ .⁠ "Once upon a time this might have been a small part of a Midsummer’s Night bonfire by #nikolaiastrup, but by now the fiery reds and yellows have burned out.⁠ ⁠
With all the lockdown measures, curfews and social With all the lockdown measures, curfews and social distancing, it certainly doesn't feel like the normal run up to Christmas this year! ⁠ ⁠ Fortunately, we’ve been busy browsing the book shelves to produce an epic list of the very latest book releases. Covering everything from Whitework, to Weaving, and Macramé to mending, this list will surely keep the most agitated crafters busy during the quieter periods.⁠ ⁠ Buy a present for yourself or a gift for a stitching and crafting enthusiasts.

In the midst of Autumn nature continues to provide In the midst of Autumn nature continues to provide some much needed inspiration. These beautiful free machine embroidered leaves are by @SewSid_ , completed on our Machine Embroidery course. 🍂⁠ ⁠ We're always talking about ways to find inspiration and develop creativity, but at this time of year it can be hard to get motivated. ⁠ ⁠ We all have that ‘blank sheet of paper’ issue when thinking about creating something, anything, in any craft or art. Creativity in textiles is no different. It doesn’t matter if you work in the area professionally or if you are a complete ‘newbie’ to textiles. The thought of sitting down to actively develop our creativity in textiles from scratch makes most of us cringe! ⁠ ⁠ If this resonates with you, then take a look at our top five tips for developing creativity in textiles. ⁠ ⁠ Link in bio! 👍⁠ ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #machineembroidery #freemachineembroidery #embroideredleaves #embroideringnature #broidery #embroideryart #embroidereveryday #stitchart #needlework #machinestitched #autumn #naturesinspiration #inspiredbynatured #textiles #textileart #stitched!
