Yvonne Linen Napkin Parsnip

 Get back to your "roots" with your family members. Set your table with these exquisite linen napkins, and give them a delightful place setting! These napkins are sure to make everyone feel closer through whimsy. The black linen fabric was purchased in the UK and sets off the beautiful appliqued-art root vegetables as if they were museum pieces. I use a process that is called modern free-motion machine embroidery, which means that I layer pieces of fabric on the (handmade, by me) napkin and then stitch over the top using my hands to guide the fabric under the stationary needle. As the needle taps away, my hands guide the subject, with flowing motion, to "sketch" in the details of the image. It is an artistic expression that brings me great joy and, in turn, brings joy to others.
