I used a tone on tone fabric in a pale mauve and had some Aurifil thread that was a perfect match. I drew the basic outline and then filled in. A vintage piece of calico for the binding finished it perfectly.
It's a good thing I'm not a perfectionist, but I was really pleased with the finish. And these are my first pebbles!! They don't look too bad from across the street, he,he.
Happy stitching today,
Karen

I would not thought of doing thread painting for the mug rug. Looks very pretty.
great great job! wow all the designs look really good. I agree, the binding is perfect
What a great way to try something new! Did you draw the design onto the fabric first and then stitch over it with the threads? Or did you just free draw it with the stitching of the threads?
It really looks great, and the threads and binding match perfectly!
Your thread quilting is beautiful. You did a fantastic job. Hugs
Absolutely lovely. Sounds like a super fun challenge. Do you by chance have photos of all the entries?
