Is it just that these designs have traditionally been worked in gold colored threads, or is there something else that distinguishes goldwork from other kinds of hand embroidery?Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6516557859503396142.post-49806988065173102362014-11-05T07:36:56.681+13:002014-11-05T07:36:56.681+13:00They are beautiful, I particularly love the bee!They are beautiful, I particularly love the bee!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6516557859503396142.post-47970661218402525912014-11-05T05:47:53.211+13:002014-11-05T05:47:53.211+13:00what beautiful work!

I love the initial and think you did the right thing stitching it for yourself, it's always nice to have some of your own work rather than give it all away. I have the book by Hazel Everett, it's gorgeous! I have a couple of goldwork kits that I really should get started on as I bought them in November last year!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05167739272302561918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6516557859503396142.post-74890677281897424272014-11-05T03:08:49.245+13:002014-11-05T03:08:49.245+13:00Our local embroiderers' guild is walking dista...Our local embroiderers' guild is walking distance from my house.
