That is the most amazing needlework I have ever seen and I thought my mom was a PRO!!!

Do they have books on how to learn that type of needlework? I've never seen anything like it, so 3D before.

They do I believe have books on this type of needlework I will ask what is the best for you. I know Helen attended the English Guild of Needlework to learn these tecniques.

Elle, I don't even know the the English guild is, I'm assuming a guild meeting in England? Either way, I've always wanted to learn more handwork. My mother was really good at those things. She would just look at something one time and make it...no pattern, no pics no nothing. She was very talented. She never taught me her art, but I started quilting before she died and I know she liked my work. That sure worked for me! But, I would love to be able to make something like that someday.
