''Embroidery Windows ''

I always say please finish what you start and then move on. Do you think I can ? nope ....

I was thinking maybe as a relaxing ways I could start working on my samplers projects .
Yes the samplers for RSN competition.
I will try to be good with this and take so many pictures as they are needed to come out with a pattern at the end .
Here is the picture of the drawing
I have the intention of using wool , cotton floss , some silk and even metal threads .
I will use crewel embroidery , thread paint , gold work techniques and a bit of Elizabethan braids.
So I hope to see this one done by autumn.
I will also use a bit amount of stitches and if anyone will like this will be one of the patterns to  make it on the http://corema-designs.com/    shop.
Here are the first few images





The fabric use is the Linen Union which is a bit similar to Twill Linen . I have to say I did use same fabric for my previous Sampler and was very hard on the fingers but this time I had give it a wash and have to say is very nice . Is more soft  but strong so can be stretch well in the frames .
I hope this will work the way I envision it .

Happy crafting all
Hugs
