Le Martin-Pêcheur

The Nimue images are the "bridge" between reality and fantasy. This embroidery depicts a bird, "Martin-Fisherman" and then an animal that exists in nature, represented very realistically with its plumage of a beautiful color, but nonetheless real. Then combines this with a presence ... fairy, a girl, with transparent wings, the tiny size, (considering that the largest bird of her!) ... And behold, the image takes a meaning very different, we are in a world "that there '", everything you can imagine observing this embroidery ... you get into a fairy tale, where everything can be ... and so it can also happen to see a little fairy resting before continuing the journey with his strange companion. I love it, before embroidering will have to translate all the instructions from the French, the very large pattern, printed on colored paper biscuit (very nice, because it looks like an ancient map!), The yarns are DMC, which should be used to two wires, but in some points to one wire, and (if I have not read it wrong) in some places by pairing two threads of two different colors together. The ricamer on Aida 55 because I want to get a fairly large embroidery, and then cutting to the canvas in a circle, to frame it in a large round frame. It will be a masterpiece! Cinzia.
