needleworkes ♦ February 6, 2015 ♦ Leave a comment

Based on a fragment found in a Tenth Century Viking Grave at Mammen Denmark.

Two quirky beasties worked in chain stitch with DMC Tapisserie wool which was split to use two of the 4 strands.

The embroidery was worked on Melton wool and the seams decorated in white wool Osenstich embroidery.
