The backstitch….
Writing with a needle & thread.
A preliminary movement study on linen….expressing a literary moment related by Virginia Woolf:

Hand stitching mimicking the machine stitch….. backstitch in Gütermann silk thread, single strand. {Sometimes the machine just misses that finished edge at the bobbin side😉}💙🖤
Passementerie study…. I had an opportunity to take a masterclass in this beautiful art form a few weeks ago with British artist Elizabeth Ashdown of @ashdowntextiles
