YVETTE'S COMMENTS
A master of needlework. I consider this kind of hand work to be of the highest complement to linen cloth. Simply, classically, breathtaking.
This dress is featured in my book, "Sardinian Knotted Embroidery: Whitework from Teulada". Multisize dress pattern and step by step embroidery instructions included. Book available from needlework stores and direct from http://www.vettycreations.com.au
Lovely embroidery... though I'd be inclined to embroider around the neckline where it'll be more visible... :-)
This dress could go anywhere, to the beach as a cover up, grocery shopping, to a job interview out to dinner or to church. What I can see of the workmanship is wonderful, I love the embroidery.
I've never heard of this embroidery stitch. It's beautiful and I guess very involved to complete. Congratulations!
Yvette has combined two of my favorites in a gorgeous way - linen and embroidery on apparel. She's done a masterful job combining the two.
