Another apprenticeship piece I found hidden away. This is a piece of Hardanger embroidery which originates from Norway. Traditionally it is stitched in white, for some reason I was allowed to do fuchsia pink! 😂 . . . #hardanger #hardangerembroidery #countedthread #whiteworkembroidery #scandinavianembroidery #embroiderysampler #countedthreadembroidery #pinkstich #whippedbarbados #klosterblock #perlé #perléthread #stitching #embroidery #ricanoamano #broderiemain #picot https://www.instagram.com/p/COkLS2mLOAr/?utm_medium=tumblr

I make magnetic needle minders.
Some people use a different name for them such as 
needle nanny, needle keeper, needle rest, pin rest, needle saver Etc.
We all have a different name for them what would you know them as ?

Not sure what to say other than, ta daa!! 😂 . Until 21 May you can see Medusae Miscellanea in her temporary home at @the_herbert_cov as one of those selected from over 1000 submissions for this year’s #coventryopen exhibition 🤩 . Last night was the private view where we got a first glimpse at the whole exhibition - and there’s some amazing work on show 😃 If you’re in the area, do go and take a look! . If you’d like to chat about Medusa and the exhibition, or just fancy coffee and cake surrounded by art, I’m back at @artatthealex tomorrow, together with @stevedavies1st and @sandiwoodsdesigner - come down and say hello! . Finally I’m drafting Medusa’s instructions at the moment so make sure you’re subscribed to my newsletter over at bluecoppice.com to get all pre-order info. And while you’re there, don’t forget to book onto my workshop - the first class is on Saturday 15 April 😃💐🐝 . #bluecoppice #honeyapplemeadow #countedthreadembroidery #rugbytown #rugbyartistsandmakers #warwickshireartist #warwickshirelife #stitchersofinstagram #coventrycrafter (at Herbert Art Gallery & Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqLu32ONgxk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Did you know that all the plants in the Kitchen Garden Sampler are edible? Pea shoots, pea flowers, pea pods, nasturtiums, strawberries, mint, chives, apples, lettuce, endives, beetroot, parsnips, turnips, leeks and both purple and orange carrots…🥬🍓🍏🥕…did you also spot the other fruit…? 🤨 . Sadly for the gardener, the chickens have escaped from Home Farm and found their way into the lettuce a@d endive beds, Mrs Rabbit is selecting the best specimens for her famous vegetable soup and the snails are steadily eating their way up the garden… 😱🐓🐇🐌🐌🐌 . You can start stitching your Kitchen Garden Sampler today - simply click the image or visit bluecoppice.com, select the digital download option and in minutes, the chart and full instructions will arrive in your inbox as a PDF 🌱🐝 . (And the other fruit? There’s a pineapple in the iron gate and another in the gateway above, carved from Cotswold stone🍍🍍) . #bluecoppice #honeyapplemeadow #countedthreadembroidery #samplerstitchersofinstagram #kitchengarden #sampler #raisedwork #stumpwork #stitchersofinstagram #needleart #embroiderylove #wicheltlinen #dmcthreads (at Rugby, Warwickshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp0tdO_LSj4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

During #warwickshireopenstudios last summer, I had a lot of people ask me how to make the ‘perfect’ knot, where to start with an embroidery, which fabric to use and if I’d consider doing a workshop or two…and I always listen to my customers, so don’t miss my new workshop 😃 It’s going to cover everything from choosing fabric and needles, all the stitches needed to create the Beehive Trellis (including my favourite French knots!), personalisation, construction and much more 🌸🐝 . It’s the perfect Mothers’ Day or birthday gift, costing less than £16 a class including all materials, tea/coffee and sweet treats ☕️🧁 All classes will be 10am-12pm on Saturdays starting 15 April in the wonderful @artatthealex in the centre of Rugby (handily right next door to the John Barford car park) 🎉🎉🎉 . For more information about dates and to sign up, click on the image or drop me a message 💐🐝 . #bluecoppice #honeyapplemeadow #countedthreadembroidery #embroideryworkshops #rugbytowncentre #rugbyartistsandmakers #handmade #warwickshirelife #womensinstitute #pincushion #zweigartfabric #dmcthreads #artatthealex #rugbytown #frenchknots #craftastherapy (at Rugby, Warwickshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpvgZeWN8oZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Now available as a PDF download, you can order, start stitching immediately and be finished in time for summer…🌸☀️🪴 .
