Hand Embroidery-Three flowers

Hello everyone..

I love doing embroidery very much.. Being very beautiful in itself, it also gives a whole new look to the fabric in which it is done... No wonder I have posted a flower embroidery given my love for flowers.. 

In this embroidery, I have used herringbone stitch .. and satin stitch for the flower center.. Herringbone stitch is using crisscross patterns repeatedly to fill the entire petal region..  
You can learn to do a herringbone stitch by seeing the the following youtube video

This embroidery was done as a center design for my landline phone cover.. We can stitch a lace along the border or do a little piping work to make it look like a mat..

 
Thank you for visiting my blog. Hope you liked my embroidery..

Have a nice day..Keep on crafting..

Art with Color Pastels

Hello everyone..

I love colors.. Colors add mmm...🤔 well... lets say colors to our life.. don't they? Today I have made a mosaic of colors using oil pastels.. There are no specific pattern or designs in this art... But I have drawn from my heart.. all the colors and designs are random which gives its unique feel and beauty...

Whenever I start to create something, I usually have a plan in my mind... Some inspired artworks, Some DIY artworks, or trying something I came across in youtube, and so on.. But when I started drawing this art, I was blank.. I created every design without any reference... So this too felt kind of new and interesting... 

When I completed this art, I started seeing some pictures in it... That felt wonderful... The most amazing thing about this type of drawing is everyone, their version will be completely different and unique at the same time..

 This is the best way to introduce art and colors to your kids... Please give it a chance and try it at home... (if possible.. along with your kids). As only oil pastels are used, it is safe for your kids too..

This was quite satisfying like drawing a zentangle pattern... But the difference is there are no intricate and repeated patterns...  


Thank you for visiting my blog.. Hope you liked my art..
 Have a nice day... Keep on drawing...

Daisy Stitch patterns heart,Peacock,flowerpot

Hello everyone..

Today lets indulge in the amazing world of hand embroidery..

Embroidery is a wonderful artwork which has its own history and it has been an integral part of fashion world.. From the time we started creating our clothes, we started experimenting with embroidery too.. Be it done with either hand as a hobby or with the help of stitching machines, We can see embroidery adorning mostly everyone's wardrobe..

In hand embroidery, Daisy stitch is one of the famous stitches and looks better for flowers...(my favourites..yay...) I have drawn some patterns for daisy stitch... The first one is a simple and looks like a heart.. It is good for beginners..


The next pattern looks like a peacock with daisy patterns for its feathers.. We can use any line stitches like chain/running/back/stem stitch for other parts of the peacock.. 


The last pattern is that of a flower pot.. Daisy stitch can be done for the flowers.. Weave stitch will look good for the basket..


Hope you liked my patterns.. Thank you for visiting my blog..feel free to comment below..


Have a nice day.. Keep on drawing..

Colorful Flowers with oil pastels

Hello everyone.

As the summer has begun, my daughter has been very happy.  But she is also getting bored sometimes..She wanted her crayons to draw something.. I found my old oil pastels set while searching her crayons..and also a new flower had bloomed in my plant.. So I have drawn some flowers using the oil pastels.. 

I have drawn many colorful flowers by blending many colors. Oil pastels are very good for blending and gives a nice effect.. I have blended some light colors with the dark color outlines.. 

In the center, I have given some black color shading along with black colored border.. 


Hope you liked my drawing.. Please feel free  to comment.. Thank you for visiting my blog.. 

Have a nice day.. Keep on drawing..
