Hand embroidered pendant of Parrot Tulips.

HI, I have just completed an embroidery of Parrot tulips on green silk. I based the design on a watercolour I painted. The tulips are beautiful flowers to paint and embroider. Last Saturday I went to the Royal School of Needlework for a day class in metalwork.  Our tutor was Becky Hogg and the design we were stitching was a fox. I thoroughly enjoyed the day and Becky was a great tutor with lots of tips on how to get a good finish. I haven't quite finished the fox  but I am thoroughly enjoying the stitching. I have embroidered since I was very young but up until last week hadn't tried any form of goldwork/metalwork. I will definitely be continuing with this form of embroidery.
