I have been obsessed with embroidery hoop art for a while now. At the Finders Keepers Market I stumbled across this artist, Tracey, known as Gretel Girl. She is an amazing illustrator who uses fantastic fabrics to help create these one of a kind gems. I think I like her work so much because her illustration style is very sketchy, and that works so well with the embroidery. How could you not love her work!
I've recently taken up cross stitching, and I'm hoping to be able to design my own work once I'm a bit more experienced. Gretel Girl is a massive inspiration, even though the base of her work is illustrations, they still have the feel I am hoping to have with my own work.
Stay tuned for a post about my own crafty cross stitch endeavours!
In the mean time, check out her website Gretel Girl, you can also find her featured on The Finders Keepers Market website!
