Black Butterfly - Thread Work - May 2011

Off late thread work on card fascinates me more than any other creative works.

These works are called Embroidery on card or thread work on card.

It is an adaptation of string art on card with threads.

Things needed :

Machine embroidery silk thread, black color

needle size 10 or 11

disposable syringe to prick holes on card

scissor
thermacole
measuring scale
pencil
compass to draw circles

For a long time I wanted to do a butterfly design using this method.

I made free hand drawing on a card.

Pricked holes.

Then I made this beautiful butterfly by thread work using only black color.

This butterfly more or less based on string art.

I tried it on card.
