I have taken a 30 year old Ehrman Needlepoint Kit designed by Margaret Murton. Luckily it was all complete and packaged in 1993! A beautiful kit. I have stitched some of Kafffe Fassett's kits so I was really looking forward to this one.
I did some research into Ehrman and Margaret Murton and found some lovely videos sharing Margarets design process, her home and studio. Watching the video I saw the painting for the Daffoldill's design so was over the moon.
Margaret is on Instagram and she kindly responded to my comment and told me about the inspiration for the Daffodils came from her parents garden.
I really enjoyed stitching this Needlepoint as Spring approached and daffodils appeared in my own garden.
It took a month of stitching especially on Fridays.
Thank you for watching please subscribe so you can see more from the studio, and here are the link for Margaret's Video.

I'm at the beginning of a Dimensions Needlepoint kit that I bought on Amazon. It's a gorgeous bouquet on black. It's my first Needlepoint project. The first thing I noticed is your picture on the canvas is much easier to see than mine is. My picture isn't printed darkly enough. I'm struggling with it. I fell in love with Kaffe Fassetts needlepoint designs, I'm determined to do some. I have his Glorious Needlepont book published in the 80's. Now I'm seriously considering buying one of the Ehrman kits. I admire that company because they've set the bar really high for beautiful Needlepoint & Tapestry, and they kept the business alive when interest in the craft waned. I'm having trouble even finding good Needlepoint podcasts to listen to today. I've heard you should do the light colors first. I cannot believe you finished that in a month! Well done!!! Let's see the pillow once you get it assembled.

Can you use water dissolving ink to darken the print up? But then wash it out with the print?

Start in center basketweave when possible park lots of strands vertically use a chart never painted canvas though- want to learn how to do my own charts of my great grand mother’s paintings

Well done for persevering, very contemporary, by doing the light colours first you can see them and then fill in with the black, black wool tends to shreds more furry bits, so they don’t get into the sewing of light colours as you go if they are already sewn in. Will be posting a follow up video of the tapestry this year. Enjoy continuing to stitch:))

Will you be showing how you did the blocking? Do you have any special method that you can share?

So cool I love it 😻. What stitches did you use?

I look for a colour and use that colour until it’s finished then I go to the next colour. But now a days it’s all my own designs. I’ve just finished on which was 6 feet by about 3 feet it took about a year to make in between other embroideries to that I made
