    Suzanne Bloemker posted an update in the group Group logo of Elizabethan/Renaissance EmbroideryElizabethan/Renaissance Embroidery 7 years, 2 months ago

    Here is my “More Than a Rose” GCC piece that I recently finished. It is a very difficult piece that more than one person in my group, modified how they finished it, because they gave up on figuring out some of the stitches. I’m the only one that fully got through it. It’s not perfect, but it’s close enough.

      Well, I’m inspired, Nancy. I have finished just the black outline so I have most of it left to do. Your plaited braid looks really nice and I’m hoping to learn the stitch!

      Suzanne Bloemker replied 7 years ago

      Don’t know where Nancy came from – my name is Suzanne or Suzi. But that’s ok. Good luck, if you’re doing this piece. I’m left-handed and doing the plaited braid was a challenge. I used directions from at least 3 different books to figure it out.

      beautiful.

      Suzanne, your finish is stunning! I’m just starting this piece and am intimidated but up for the challenge. I’m left-handed as well and am a bit nervous about what you said about having to source instructions from many sources. What book ultimately worked best for you?
