#countedwork

Pattern is day 7 on #SeptTextileLove . Perfect example of pattern in hand embroidery is blackwork. Geometric patterns are counted out on evenweave linen using different weights of thread to change tones. Here is black silk on 55 threads per inch Zweigart Kingston linen... and yes it's very hard to count! @seam_collective . . . #septtextilelove2020 #blackworkembroidery #countedthread #countedembroidery #geometricembroidery #textileartist #silkembroidery #linenembroidery #shadedembroidery #countedwork #embroideryartisart #embroideryartistsoninstagram #embroideryartist #BritishStitchers #ihavethisthingwithembroidery #ihavethisthingwiththread https://www.instagram.com/p/CE3wXKrnnZj/?igshid=5tqxl8t1ix06
