Blackwork Fantasy
 

Blackwork Fantasy by Lynn Burshtin
This bookmark pattern was created for my EGA chapter, CyberStitchers, by one of our members. Chapter members are encouraged to stitch it for our outreach literacy project. But I'll be giving this one to one of the members of my quilt group, the St. George's Quilters, for her birthday this month.

I decided to stitch it with an overdyed fiber from Needle Necessities that I had in my stash. I lost the name of this fiber long ago. But I like the way it goes from purple to green and back again.

If you'd like to learn a bit about Blackwork, read the page in Needlework 101 called Blackwork Basics.
