Embroidery Update
Mon, 2012-07-30 15:10 | by Caroline

A couple of months ago I wrote a post about a client's photo serving as the inspiration for a new entryway door as well as the embroidery for the Living Room Window treatments. After a few revisions we are starting to narrow in on a final design.

Now on to some design options we have been thinking about.

Above is the first strike off that we received from the embroiderer.  At first I thought we wanted to keep the embroidery very simple like the sample on the right. But after thinking about scale and interest, I decided to do a few more revisions that highlight the lines filled-in, as seen on the left.

Last week I visited the embroiderer and they printed out a few variations on this new concept.

The original strike off with the rest of the elements of the room pinned up on the top left.

Playing with the elements of the design, which include color, line size, and fills.

I really love this new dark blue option but I am waiting for the strike-off to come back. We will keep you posted.

And now, I can't resist showing you a sneak peak of the embroidery for another project we are working on. While I was visiting the embroiderer I got to see them putting the finishing touches on window treatments for another client. I can't wait to see these go up!
