Stitched Up

Recently I created these embroided portraits of myself and my husband Matthew. I rummaged through some fairly recent profile shots of us both, traced over them onto accetates (simplifying the image), then traced the image onto fabric and stitched in the lines using red embroidery thread!


Currently I am using the image as our profile picture but my plan is to frame our portraits individually in embroidery hoops and hang them in our home. I also plan to do one of our daughter Pixie...watch this space!
