Variegated owl

blackwork-owl-purple (2K)

Sian’s Little Owl was worked in Anchor multi-coloured threads in shades of purple.

Prize winner!

My first attempt at blackwork was your 'starter' kit of the blue rocking horse.

I was lucky enough to find a dark blue frame with a touch of gold in the moulding at a very reasonable price and when I entered the picture into our little village show it won first prize.

It is now on the wall of my latest grandson with the certificate on the back.
