Candace Bahouth: Klimt - coral needlepoint cushion



I find these abstract pictures attractive, and I had no hesitation in buying this Ehrman kit when I found it in a charity shop.  Stitching it was pleasant, but I find perhaps I prefer more irregular subjects.  Instead of using the inflexible gold lurex yarn doubled I used one strand and added Appleton crewel yarn; it made nicer stitching.

Ehrman does four different Klimt designs - I have one more to do.

Stitched  21 February to 16 May 2020; finished cushion  18 June 2020
