silk ribbon embroidery...

From the moment I saw the first silk ribbon embroidery items I was hooked.

I wanted to learn how to do it, how to make all kinds of roses, I love roses. 

 After reading about it, looking at tons of pictures, trying out different 

techniques for coloring the ribbons, believing I could do it, 

 even though I have never been a big fan of embroidery, 

my first silk ribbon embroidery items are ready!!  

my silk ribbon embroidery turned into these (beautiful) pillows

by a very talented professional seamstress..

silk ribbon roses & linen..

soon to be someone's heart...? 

(I hope to be able to sell these items in my web-shop, opening soon!?)

thank you for stopping by...

going for red...

Just started to decorate the house for the holidays ahead
