Embroidering on Patterned Fabric: LadyLapsus

Via the Feeling Stitchy Blog,  a wonderful idea by LadyLapsus for adding to the design elements of an embroidery piece by using colored/patterned fabric as a background rather than the traditional white linen.   It just seems like brilliant idea.

I'm also seeing embroidery hoops in different shapes and colors, which adds another interesting element, particularly if you use the hoop as a frame for the work, as many do.
