This is a piece about my father-in-law and his favourite things. He has been somewhat under the weather lately so I thought to try and cheer him up a bit.
It's all hand-stitched with some appliqué. I also used some paint.
I wanted to give it a bit of an old-fashioned sampler-like feel.
By using the same stitches and recurring patterns I tried to increase the unity of the piece.
Proficiat Mieke,
