People often ask where I get my ideas from, and the truth is, these embroidery kits usually grow from something I have imagined and then researched. I found this image of a church on a riverbank in Estonia. Armies have marched past on their way to various invasions and repossessions of land many times over six centuries, each time leaving the church in various states of destruction. I have changed the church – made the river a lake, added a romantic pair skating in their Sunday best, taken inspiration from a watercolour painted by a young woman doing the Grand Tour.
The stitches in this piece are simple, and step-by-step instructions will guide you through each element. The price reflects the size of this embroidery (22 x 20cm / 8 1/2″ x 9″).
Remember, I am always at the end of an email if you have any queries.
