#WorldEmbroideryDay was started in 2011 by Skåne Sy-d, a local group of Broderiakademin, the Swedish Embroiderer’s Guild, as a call to recognize embroidery as a way to bring forth peace and creative understanding.

It’s #WorldEmbroideryDay ! I make #SciArt #embroidery of #anatomy and #symptomatology. After I got sick with #MECFS in 2015 I started stitching as a more restorative creative practice than my previous music and theatre work.

Here are recent makes, as fillers for my Bits & Bobs collage quilt.
You might recognize them, as elements I made for the Let’s Play series – I loved the ideas so much I made them in the Bits & Bobs colours. 👏😍🩷💙

So much fun, taking small pieces - adding embroidery & embellishments, to add them to a larger piece. 🪡🥰

I haven’t shared any embroidery in a long time, but it’s #worldembroideryday so I thought I’d share what I’m working on.

I’ve also embroidered a blue & white plate, for my Time for Tea quilt! 🪡🧵💙🤍
