During my trip to Sweden, I saw this at the front door of an hotel. It was supposed to represent the archipel of islands and lakes around Stockholm.

This has been the inspiration for this embroidery:

The stitches are from the TAST challenge: Zig Zag Spanish Knotted Stitch and Twisted Satin Stitch

Lovely piece made from your inspiration. Must be the weekend for inspired work. I have a couple of projects going too. :)
Great blog! Thanks for the comment on my postcards on my blog!
Well done for incorporating the TAST stitch - the piece is great!! I've never heard of this week's stitch, but you've definitely done it justice....
What a great idea! What is the ground fabric? What is the blue fabric? It looks ethereal. Very original.
