I am right at the begining of my new experience of silk ribbon embroidery and find your web site both encouraging and amazing and very informative. I love to get lost looking at all your fantastic achievements, they are truly beautiful. Thank you
Thank you Christine :)) Enjoy yourself ♥
Absolutely beautifyl work! I’ve been looking around the web for ideas of things to do with the ribbons from my sister’s funeral flowers. She died way to young…only 57. I have all the ribbons from the flowers and hope to make something from them. Any advice? tks.
Your are truly an inspiring person! I can’t wait to begin silk ribbon embroidery. Just by chance the other day, I was able to purchase your Embroidered Alphabets book and I am so excited to try this method of embroidery. I told several colleagues about this style and they can’t wait to start their own projects. You have motivated us to explore and use our imaginations.
