Stitches of time

 Embroidery, slow stitching and drawing are simple but rewarding actions!  I started stitching when I was 19 , my sister-in-law introduced me.  I started out with crewel and moved to cross stitch  My Aunt Gennie lived in Pawleys Island and was great friends with Jeannie Thompson.




 I Took classes with Susan Edmondson, making prayer flags.  That opened my eyes to the possibility of creating on different fabrics and mediums.  I then started random stitching on fabrics 10 years and  loved adding flowers and stitches to clothing 

I started embroidery stitches, words and combinations of words on vintage clothing.  I love old linens!

I started putting my embroidered dresses in frames, like Marian.  She has a great tutorial

Ruth Rae inspired me to embroider words on my Art Dresses, Slips and Jackets





I hope I inspire you to make your thoughts appear on fabric!
