We are enjoying the Susan Roberts Trunk Show
. Right now while the St. Basil's class is going on, the participants are enjoying the canvases. This trunk show has something for everyone.I like stitching items that are seasonally relevant; realistically, I know they won't be ready until the next year. But I am inspired by spring colors in the spring.
These three Easter eggs are charming. Because I have three children, I like finding something that is similar but different. I could stitch an egg for each one. And I would have great fun picking the fuzzy threads for each bunny. The top egg is the most realistic so I wouldn't be tempted to glitz it up. Instead, I would use Alpaca for the bunny. I would use a stranded silk for the sky so it would recede more. Think either wisper of petite peluche for the sky.
On the second egg, I would use some of the new candy colors from Kreinik for the glitz. I would use petite peluche for the bunny but petite very velvet for its ears.
On the third egg, I would repeat the blue from the water and the green from the grass from the first egg. I want the white areas to frame the bunny vignette.
What would you do?
