Version 2 - Silk Ribbon Embroidery App - now available.

 Hi everyone. Version 2 of the Silk Ribbon Embroidery app is available for download in the Apple App Store.  I'm sorry I can't give you an Android version, I did price it once for someone else to create one, and they quoted me $30,000, ridiculous. So whilst I can do it for FREE by myself and with a little help from my son, you get just Apple.

What's new: There are now video links within the many stitches and useful tips. I've added new Embroidery Stitches and some new useful tips. I will update the downloadable ones here on this website soon.

Here is the link to watch how to navigate the new version: https://youtu.be/pAwf5ZRu4Mc

Available in the app store, just search for Silk and you will find it.

Happy stitching.

A new App and an update

Hi All,

Sorry I haven't been on here for a while, but have been busy trekking the Victorian country side, and working on the new Silk Ribbon Embroidery App.  They are currently being tested and hopefully will be released in the next couple of weeks. Watch this space, or on the Facebook page and we are now on instragram.

The Update to the embroidery App - Version 3 will have 2 new projects, 9 new stitches and new useful Tips. We will also be introducing you to a new technique, Blackwork, this is a wonderful little project to create a unique needle case.

 The new Silk Ribbon Embroidery App will introduce you to the wonderful craft that will help you create some wonderful projects. The projects are also available in the Etsy Shop.  The new app will have a small cost, but everything within the App is FREE. 8 projects - 6 mini projects and 2 more complex like this stunning embroidered bookmark. The App will also show you how to dye your own ribbon, threads and fabric to create the same delicate colours.

 Within the App is a project to make one of these hearts, the rest are available in the Etsy store.

 Here are two of the mini projects, these delicate and stunning Fuchsia's and 

 A basket full of rambling roses. 

There are many stitches, and useful tips for you to explore and some embroidery stitches to help you complete the projects.  Watch this space for the release date.

Catching up and the new App

We are still house sitting at Burrum Heads, we will be here until mid October. Enjoying a lovely winter, although I have had to make a rush trip back to Warwick and it was very cold and wet there.
I'm currently doing a class with the Monday craft - Spring Blooms. We will also do a trip to Fraser Island before heading south. One place I've always wanted to see.

I am also working on the next app, Silk Ribbon Embroidery. Here's the new logo for the App. This app will be a purchase one, but it will not be expensive, I just need to recoup some of the money that Apple demands for creating them, it might be Free for you, but not for me. By the time I've finished I would have worked over 1000 hours into this app.

Also a sneak peak at one of the Free projects that will be in the app - a Bookmark.

I've finished creating all the new 'tips' for this app, there are many, including dyeing, storing, creating backgrounds etc, as well I have finished the stitching for all the stitches. I still need to create the 'flower' stitches and finish off the second free project and create a couple of paid projects. I hope to release in October, which could be a push, but I'm gonna try.

As for the Android version, well we are still working on it. Not sure how long, as it is now left in Chris's hands to finish off, as I have done all I can.
