Just as I thought, the Young Embroiderers had no problem with canvas work. It was a short meeting today as we only had the room for this morning, plus it was a small group but they did really well in the time. Not everyone finished but as you can see the work in progress looks lovely.
The green one above was Danijela's and Aleksija was working on the blue and purple one below. We found some plastic canvas in our cupboard which made them a little easier to work - certainly a lot easier to join together.

They are beautiful, what a lovely idea!
ReplyDeleteThey certainly did!! Do well! What lovely work in such a short time. They should all be very pleased with themselves and with their talented teacher. (Hope you're treating yourself with a glass of something red).
ReplyDeleteThey are all fantastic! I think I've got some plastic canvas somewhere but I've never been sure what to get the children to make with it - now I've got a very good idea!

How rewarding this must have been. The session may have been short but the results are sweet. Well done you.
ReplyDeleteCanvaswork was the technique which led me into embroidery, and I am still drawn to it, although I do all sorts now, and mixed media. Your young pupils have done very well indeed - I love their bookmarks. You must be proud of them all.
ReplyDeleteThey all look really good - out of interest, what ages of children did you have working on this?
ReplyDeleteThey certainly did do well. Its a lovely idea.

Aren't they superb? What sort of ages were they? People only learn when they have an inspirational tutor you know.
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely. Nice to see a young lad joining. I was also at an Embroiderer's Guild class yesterday, but for big kids! I am goin gto post about it once my photos have been uploaded
ReplyDeleteThey are great, perfect little projects!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, they've done a lovely job. Did they choose the colours themselves? They certainly have an eye for it.
ReplyDeleteI love your dedicationto the next generation of crafty people. You rock and I'm sure they know it!
