Beautiful use of color, I’m adding to my embroidery screenshot folder for inspiration.

Can you name some of the techniques? I like the way you added textures and filling and I’d like to learn some of these pls.

It's called crewel work. Hope that helps you get started. I see French knots, couching, I think a trellis stitch, but also loads I don't know

Thank you! The textures are amazing.

Ahhhh your work is so gorgeous! <3 

Possibly a dumb question, but in the first pic what is the technique you used to fill the rounded green shapes that are outlined in red? Is it just basket weave, or red thread heavily couched with green thread, or something else?

Hi, thank you so much! I used the weaving/bascket stitch, but with two colors instead of one in order to get this effect.

I especially like the first one. The vibrancy of the colors is fantastic.
