New Post After a Long Time

It has been ages since I wrote something on both of my blogs. Lots of things have happened during this time. My beloved dad passed away after being hospitalized for almost a month. My mother-in-law underwent a major eye operation. I actually had no time and the mindset to even think about embroidery and sewing.

Recently I managed to find some time to embroider on the yoke of a dress for my younger daughter. She is 1 year old now.

For this simple project I have used some shades of pink for the flower on the right, and variegated thread (consisting of lilac, off-white, peach, blush pink colors) for the flower on the left. I just wanted to experiment needle painting with variegated thread. I outlined the leaves instead of filling up with long and short stitch (to save time of course, because I have planned to finish this project in a week's time.)

Embroidering after a long break is so refreshing, as well as connecting with you all too, of course.
