My Favorite Hobby: Embroidering

Pilar Barrera

These are some of the little projects that I’ve embroidered. There is something very satisfying in doing each stitch: the effect that a knot or a simple line has on the picture.  Each one is a new experience, and, more importantly, a new adventure!

For example, in this autumn scene, what is the little fox doing?  Is he searching for food or a friend?

Or who is this girl? I think she lives in a fairy tale and a huge adventure awaits her!

Where do these busy bees live? Just by looking at the variety of flowers, I bet their honey is delicious!

These are the some of the things I think when I’m doing an embroidery project… they are little tales of magic and wonder.
