Silk Ribbon Embroidery Workshop

I'm excited to announce I'll be teaching an on-going silk ribbon
embroidery workshop at Judy's Sewing Center, in Scotts
Valley, California. It begins Wednesday, July 15th, 2009, and
will continue every third Wednesday of the month. The time
is 10am to 1pm, and cost is $15.



You can make this needlecase, or bring something of your own to embroider on. Any questions...email Roxanne at:
roxribbons@comcast.net.










The lady on the swing is a fabric photo transfer with 7mm loop flowers on the top, surrounded by lazy daisy petals and cascading wisteria. To give dimension, I used silk buttonhole twist for the stamen and leaves.

I am in love with your work! I am however, having the hardest time trying to figure out how to make the ribbon roses...argh!
