This first sample was done on a piece of cotton fabric I dyed with silk paints. It came out lighter than I wanted. I only used a small piece of it so I can experiment putting some more silk paints on to darken it. I used stranded cotton threads again this week.
This 2nd sample was done on linen with my usual axminster thread and crochet cotton. I am really going to have to buy some more threads to use, it is starting to get monotonous.

What are axminster threads? I use a variety of threads and some crochet threads that I have dyed but I'm not familiar with these.
I like your samples, tone on tone is always lovely and your painted background is fabulous!
