Stumpwork Class with Jane Nicolas

 One of the items I had on my bucket list was to attend a class with Embroider Jane Nicolas. I was on the waiting list to do her class at BATB this year, but due to COVID, it was cancelled. Jane rescheduled it at her home town and I was able to attend, was I over the moon.

Her class didn't disappoint and I got to embroider with a friend too. Here is my finished worked and some close ups.
