Shisha


Shisha mirrors attached with Cretan and Buttonhole stitches + a few bullion knots. Mental note to self not to cover the whole thing with Shisha!

Something new learnt today - the photo was taken at dusk with flash and it shows the sparkle in the sheer nylon fabric overlay nicely!



For Jo, a pic taken before I decided to add another Shisha and the little Bullions.

Thankyou for all your lovely and encouraging comments everyone - they are very much appreciated!

Gina, you do so much wonderful work in so many areas how can you say such things lol!

It's a while since I've done such a variety of hand stitching (much harder on the eyes these days) but I am enjoying it.
