Anyone got embroidery/appliqé pictures I could use for my home ec project?

[nicolevins]

Hello everyone!

In school, for home ec we have to do a craft project for out junior cert which is in 3rd year. Im still in 2nd year but we are doing ours early to save the hassle.

I typed everything out on my laptop, but I need pictures of embroidery (and appliqué)! We have to do the history (like, write out how embroidery started and all).

So, if you guys have any pictures that I could print out and put into my project I would really appreciate it

Thanks :wave:

have you thought about printing off a picture of the Bayeux Tapestry - this is actually a fine piece of embroidery which tells the story of the Norman Conquest of britain - 1066. Embroidery as a historical record - tho' one written by the winning side!!

if i've done this right you should see a 12" x12" panel with an appliqued robin in the middle. he is standing on an log outlined in chain stitch. all the stitching is by hand - mine!

and another piece of applique - the metallic material used for the stars and snowflakes is quite thick so i didnt satin stitch around it. the black strips giving the effect of stained glass leading are very thin strips of binding. these two panels are all the applique i still have and were done for xmas. if you need them i have some pics of my quilting blocks
