I'm glad to find people here who are interested in the needle work . My hobby is working with a needle or needlepointing ( embroidery). But I use mostly already made schemes ( charts) of famous companies such as Viehler gobelins, L & L Mirabilia, Passion Ricamo, Lanarte ...
But my mother liked crocheting and my aunt loves kniting, and watching they works I learned the basics of crocheting and kniting.
For my first needleworkmonday
I started with a famous embroidery firm Wiehler gobelin.
It is landskape, watermill, pictures of a famous painter Francois Bouicher.
Picture approx 72X55 cm, 34 colours ( 9 stitchis on 1cm
my products
for this embroidery use only Wiehler kits.
You can see the technique of embroidery in the following pictures.

petit-point stitch
When i married, i was lucky that my husband liked gobelins and he wanted to have everything, evry single chart of them. And he started to collect different charts. He searched for advertisement about gobelins, personally contacting advertisers and buying charts one by one...And now, we have more than 400 different charts.
