I’ve moved on once again and the thing that’s caught my interest at last (hopefully permanently) is blackwork. I soon moved on to embroidery with cotton floss (it appeared to have it’s uses-that and my mother had a huge stash) and crewel work but I vowed never to get into counted cross stitch. Well, that is the wrong attitude to have-pride goeth before the fall and all that. I wondered how anyone could not be into ribbon embroidery if they’d heard of it and concluded most people didn’t know because it didn’t seem very popular. It was so striking and unlike anything I’d ever seen that it seemed better than anything else. When I got into embroidery as an adult it was ribbon embroidery that caught my attention. So, in addition to craft ADD I am a bit of a craft snob.
