Beautiful embroidery

I was researching into the Banks Mill event and enclosed in the advertisement for it which I found online, there was a competition entry form to win a Helen Meakin textile piece.

This got me looking at her work and I found it was absolutely beautiful. She embroiders a lot of flowers which is something I love to do in my spare time (when my sewing machine wants to work). It inspired me to try something as simplistic but beautiful like she does. Of which I will upload onto here when I finally get my new sewing machine which is a fantastic Bernina 1008 model. Can't wait to try it out for the first time!

Here are a few examples of Helen's work. With any luck, I'll win one at the event.
