Firestorm

Feel the flames, see the campfire, this entire piece radiated heat and smoldering ash, from start to finish so I had no choice but to call it “Firestorm”. It is an original design and a study in old and new needlepoint patterns. A blend of Laid fillings, String Art and Layered patterns are included. The colour palette is fiery reds, orange, rust and turquoise with plenty of Metallics for shine and sparkle. This is fun to stitch and will appeal to those students who would like to learn new techniques while challenging themselves by mastering complex canvaswork stitches.
