My sister and I very much enjoyed watching Master Chef Australia and I thought that their logo would look good embroidered, as it turned out after outlining the shape with stem stitch, the work had pulled in so much and every row around to fill it in was going to pull more, rather than have that happen I used acrlyic paint to fill it in.
The image also shows the hem at the bottom as this is the end of the 8th Panel

Last year for the tour I did a detailed embroidery of a street scene, it took a long time to stitch, this year I didn’t have as much time and had to think of a simpler design, I ended up playing around with the bike design, making it a bit smaller and repeating it in different colours.
To adapt this cadfael design to my sampler I had to simplify the lines, I also turned it upside down because it looked visually better that way.
