Kaylee Aine

Another embroidery for a another friend’s daughter – born just two weeks ago.

This one’s very simple – a nice flowing chain stitch, on silk.

I found it harder to embroider on silk than cotton, because the fabric’s not as stable. Even if you try very hard to keep an even tension, the fabric still likes to move about as you work on it. I’m not sure I’ll try embroidery on silk again, but I’m still pleased with how this turned out.

The parcel should have arrived in Scotland by now, so I hope Kaylee’s parents like it!
