PAINT WITH THREAD: IN THE GARDEN/ EMBROIDERY (HB)

Thread painting, also known as needlepainting or silk shading, is a form of embroidery that creates a realistic effect using a single strand of thread and one simple stitch; the 'long and short stitch'. Using this technique, you can effectively paint with thread in a similar way to brushstrokes on a canvas.
