Hoops....where would we be without them. More specifically where would I be without them, nowhere is the answer. Without them I wouldn't be able to embroider and this blog would basically be about nothing. Some might say it's already about nothing but at least there are pictures to look at....
I cannot believe how long this piece is taking me,,,,I will have grown a beard before it's finished. Good job I like it then....

beautiful stitched lines and trails...an embroidery map of sorts.
Gorgeous! I love this - so fragile & ethereal.
Looking beautiful! I am anxious to start on my small piece, but didn't get to it last night....
Oh wow! That stitching is wonderful, not surprised it's taking time. Love it
Interesting webby bark-effect, there. I never know what I'm going to find next when I visit!
I am still practicing embroidering with hoops. The small ones I like the best - not heavy or 'wobbly' with arthritic hands:-)
That image in my brain of you growing a beard... is rather disturbing *lol*
Wow,this is such delicate embroidery! I can imagine it's fun to see the fabric change with every stitch you make.
love that Karen. just beautiful
Oh it makes me want to have a go!
beautiful work indeed. But I just keep starting more projects all the time, need to get a hoop out soon....your work is very inspiring as always x
Love the airy bits, the bullions--you are the Bullion Quee!
So delicate and fragile looking...you are amazing Karen!

Wow! What a delight, the last pic is totally stunning, I love the uniqueness of your work and the fact that you come up with something different on every post, yet it 's within the same discipline, magic!
Out of curiosity - have you tried using the plastic hoops? They seem to be about all I can find lately. Any wooden ones in the stores are horrible; wonky and filled with slivers.
