Embroidered Neck Design---Progress




Do you remember this one? It’s a project I had to set aside some time ago because I ran out of threads right in the middle of stitching. I didn’t want to substitute colors and risk losing the harmony of the design, so I decided to wait until I could get the exact shades I wanted.

Now that I finally have all the threads ready, I’m excited to start working on it again! There’s something so satisfying about returning to a piece after a break — it feels a bit like catching up with an old friend. I’ve made just a little progress so far; I’ve added a few leaves to the design and started planning the big pink flower that will bloom on the right side.

The leaves are bringing lovely life and balance to the composition, and I can already imagine how beautiful the finished piece will look once that large flower is completed. Sometimes, even slow progress feels rewarding. Each stitch adds a bit of color and joy. I’m looking forward to sharing more updates as this embroidery comes back to life!





Like many stitchers, I have a few UFOsUnfinished Objects — tucked away in various corners of my workspace. As of now, there are five of them waiting patiently for my attention: this neck design, embroidery projects on two sarees, a pillow cover, and a delicate doily.

There’s such a wonderful sense of satisfaction in completing something you started. Still, I think every crafter will agree that having multiple projects in progress is part of the creative rhythm. Sometimes inspiration strikes before one piece is done, and that’s okay.
