Behold, my first ever needlepoint project!

Absolutely loved stitching this and I will definitely be needlepointing a lot more in future. It's actually supposed to be sewn into a bowl to fully finish, but I need to source some fabric before I can do that part.

So far due to the limited selection of colours in my local craft shop, the first reaction from a friend was to call it "dreary". But I think it's cute 😭

Anyway new craft achieved 😁

#LayingTools are wonderful for keeping your stitches laying flat in #CrossStitch, #Needlepoint, #Embroidery, etc., but they don't have to cost an arm and a leg. You can use a #YarnNeedle or something similar if you need to. These "stitch correctors" from Hobby Lobby can double as a laying tool & to help correct dropped stitches in #Crochet or #Knitting. A #TrolleyNeedle is also a nice option & is made to be worn on your finger.

Entwurf für die Zeichnung auf Stramin: von Bild 1 stelle ich eine Kopie der Umrisse her, dazu nehme ich Butterbrotpapier und einen weichen Bleistift. Die Umrisse male ich dann mit schwarzem Filzstift nach, lege den zugeschnittenen Stramin darauf und zeichne die Umrisse mit bunten Filzstiften in der passenden Farbe nach. Den vorgezeichneten Stramin koloriere ich noch mit Wasserfarbe. (Bild 2) #needlepoint #watercolour #MastoArt #birds #KleineKunstklasse #fiberarts
