\nBecause I’m always impatient I preferred to use a piece from an orange – grapefruits are so big ;-)<\/p>\n

While working I had a lot of fun.
\nI like the embroidery of orange peels nearly as much as embroidery on paper<\/a>. The most uncommon thing I had to do was to give my needle a wash ;-))<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

\"unikatissima After the embroidery I put the orange peel between several layers of tissue paper in an old telephon book and let it dry ‘flat’.
\nActually I had hoped that I can coat it with medium gel afterwards and wear as a pendant, but I don’t really like the ‘flat version’ of my orange peel.<\/p>\n

\"unikatissima I find worst that the threads now stand up now like croquet wickets, I really don’t like this.<\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n

At the next opportunity I will see if I can make it better.
\nIf it works I will perhaps embroider beads on, that should be interesting, perhaps Paisleys<\/a> or simply Freeform<\/a>.<\/p>\n
