Scissor case

Hi, It has been a long time since I posted an item on my blog and now we are a good way into the new year. I begun stitching a scissor case from a kit of raised and gold work embroidery by the Royal School of Needlework. This is a lovely design and I have enjoyed the combination of stem stitch satin stitch and couched gold thread. I have yet to stitch the flower centres with gold chips. The flap will have a raised flower attached to give some depth to the design. The photographs show the stitching so far. I will post further photos when I have completed the raised flowers.

    I remember this one! I had a kit from the previous series - strawberry and rose ring/pin cushion, which was worked in stumpwork and couched Ophir etc. Looking forward to seeing more of this.=)

      They are lovely kits. I thought I would make this for my friends birthday later this year.
