 White Rose of Yorkshire

 

I did some design work about Elizabeth of York. Henry VIII's mother. One of my experiments was a line drawing with gold pen on black paper...oh so striking! SO, I had to do it in fabric. I used invisible thread and tissue paper to get the lines on the black velvet, but hand embroidered with gold thread. Also beaded, stamped and painted with Lumiere paints. DH calls her the African Tudor!
