12th century embroidery – Saint Michael and the Dragon – sneak peek.8

2014/05/10

*Wow* I already spent about 60 hours embroidering at my “12th century embroidery – Saint Michael and the Dragon“. I am very glad to say that about one third of the embroidery is already finished by now. Though this medieval embroidery technique is rather slow, I am really happy about the achieved progress. It seems to me that the longer I am working at this project, the faster I get. However, working at this embroidery is a great fun for me and I still consider this a fun project. 😀 …and here are some new progress pictures for you – enjoy! 😀

Today I have again some embroidery progress concerning my “12th century embroidery – Saint Michael and the Dragon” for you.
