I have been thinking of doing a bit of blackwork for a while now so I chose this lovely blackwork project. The lovely stitcher in the photo is called ANGELINA and she has been designed by Ilse Altherr. I am including the picture that came with the instructions as I have just put her on stretcher bars and have not yet started working on her, but that will change after I finish writing this post.

Blackwork is a technique that I really enjoy working on and both Marion Scoular and Ilse Altherr have such lovely designs. There are other blackwork designers out there, but I am most familiar with them.
I am itching to start so will go for now and come back when I have something to show for myself (grinning).

That is really pretty, are you going to use the same colours or your own colour choice
Hi Pierrette,
This is very pretty and delicate. Are you going to change the colors as Terry asked or keep them the same?

Terry & Cynthia,
I will be keeping the same colors as I rather like them.

This looks so pretty, I can't wait to see you stitch it up. Where did you get it?
I both love and loathe blackwork! It is so beautiful, but it takes so much concentration. LOL
That is a beautiful pattern. Enjoy!
