This embroidery hoop includes a variety of stitches and techniques: satin stitch, french knots, and beading. In my embroidery, I love to experiment with the different textures and effects all of these different methods create. In this case, the existing pattern on this piece of vintage silk is a key compositional element

This hoop is finished with a felt backing stitched with my initials. The hoop has been painted with acrylic paint.

Dimensions: 5.5 inches in diameter and .5 inches in depth.
