Baroque
| Stitcher: | Linda Sellars, Michigan |
| Designer: | Jean Hilton |
| Location: | Hanging it in the stitcher's home (with the ribbon nearby) |
| Description: | Linda has been an admirer of Jean Hilton for quite
awhile so when her local needlepoint shop offered Baroque
taught by Jean, Linda eagerly signed up. Jean Hilton uses
straight stitches to create patterns and shapes that seem
to curve. Linda really enjoy learning these stitches and
using them elsewhere. She would love to possess such a
gift but learning the stitches and then using them is the
next best thing. Baroque was a fun piece to stitch. Some of Linda's original color choices seemed to blend together in certain combinations so she made changes continuously, creating a pleasant surprise when completed. Other color combinations in the class were varied and interesting. It was quite an experience. |
