I TAUGHT MYSELF SILK RIBBON EMBROIDERY BY BUYING SOME SAMPLER KITS AND FOLLOWING THE DIRECTION. I ALSO BOUGHT SOME BOOKS WITH FLOWER PATTERNS, FRUIT AND LITTLE SPIDERS AND LADY BUGS. HERE ARE A FEW THAT I DID WHILE WE WERE DRIVING TO INDIANA. WHEN I GOT HOME I CUT THEM APART AND GLUED THEM INTO FRAMES. I COPIED THEM IN MY SCANNER SO YOU CAN SEE HOW THEY TURNED OUT. I DID TWELVE DIFFERENT ONES BUT I HAVE RUN OUT OF THE FRAMES AND NEED TO PICK UP A FEW MORE. I HOPE THIS WILL ENCOURAGE YOU TO START A NEW CRAFT.
