Drawn thread work pyramids

Hi,
I have just finished framing my drawn thread work pyramids. My design is stitched on Cashel 28 count linen dyed using silk fabric paints to create a hot desert feeling background for the drawn thread work pyramids. I used hand dyed pearl threads by Chameleon for the drawn thread work. Beads have been stitched into the pattern on the larger pyramid. I stitched a satin stitch camel to give the pyramids scale.The beading adds a three dimensional effect to the piece.

Long and short stitch embroidery.

Hi,
I have been embroidering some flowers in long and short stitch. The flowers were stitched using DMC and Anchor embroidery thread and the leaves with a linen thread. I think a butterfly would be a lovely addition to the piece and possible a ladybird. I have just begun the butterfly using 22 gauge wire. I want the butterfly to look as if its flying.
