Venetian #2


Friday, December 4, 2015
Here is the second of my mini 'Venice' pictures.  This one is also 5 inches by 7 inches.  These were fun to make.  I edited my photos by applying painterly effects and printed them to fabric along with other images on a yard of Spoonflower fabric.
I free motion stitch with black thread to outline the buildings, people, and gondolas.  I use a pale blue thread for the sky, and I use multiple colors of rayon embroidery threads to stitch the water.  I like the shiny threads for the water as they give it a more reflective appearance.
