Hi there! Just found your wonderful space! I did fish- with my pappy. Here in Texas Bass and Catfish were quite popular.
I enjoy this work so much because it is so much like a drawing. I am a painter and new to embroidery- have begun on paper-fun-and am interested in moving to fabric- I love the hemp fabric that you have used here.
Thank you so much!! Everything I see her brings a smile to my face!
peace,
slee

I love your embroidery. Yes, I do remember us hiring a dingy at Scarborough and catching heaps of whiting when as a child which I enjoyed at the time but couldn't do now. It's funny what you find out about people - never would have guessed that you were a champion fisherwoman.

Wow! A fabulous piece - love it! I did a lot of fishing as a kid as well, but we were always from a river bank so no problems about peeing in a bucket :)

Love this :)

Oh yes, fishing!! My Dad was in the navy & couldn't get enough of the sea, didn't care who came fishing, my brothers, my sister & i, just loved combining family & fishing, except Mum, she couldn't swim or think of anything worse. She did cook our catch beautifully. My sister always won best fish - size & type, not to mention fast!! Um, she was a ballerina & wouldn't even bait her own hook!! Love Posie

Hi Rebecca,
Your embroidery skills are amazing. I tend to avoid alot of embroidery as I just never seem to be able to get it nice and even. I love all of the one off designs you are doing. The design really suits the fabric too. Melinda xo

This is fantastic! Super embroidery.

I went fishing a lot as a kid since my father loved it. We grew up in NYC so my father went to Long Island to fish all the time. We spent our summers in Canada where my father fished everyday. We ate every fish he caught. He loved Bass by the way!

Wow! Fish give me the heebie jeebies in a big way, but I really love this. It's nicely stitched, and that fabric looks awesome!

Yes, we did a lot of fishing as kids on the Central Coast of NSW. At one stage when I was really tiny my father was concerned that I would impale myself with the hook, so he quietly removed it and covered the end of the line with bait (flour and water paste). I would sit there patiently in the row boat for hours, wondering why I never caught anything!

2010-01-25T21:49:31.825+10:00

OMG.

No cheese required.

This is the most inspired and thoughtful piece of embroidery I think I've ever seen.

I'm not joking...this is way acer than ace!

Wow Rebecca, thats amazing embroidery!
