Blackwork patterns
Blackwork is wonderful embroidery technique that I find very relaxing. Pretty much any geometric pattern can be converted into a blackwork pattern. Through careful selection of appropriate patterns, impressive shading and texture can be created in a blackwork embroidery. For blackwork tips, check out my website www.elaraembroidery.com
