Embroidered Celtic Unicorn

Over the Christmas week I got to work on a new piece of work. It’s my most ambitious embroidery to date; at least in terms of scale. I completed these two hand embroidered Celtic knotted circles over the course of the last couple of days and I’m now in the progress of marking out the rest of the fabric.

The work follows on from the stylised unicorn mask drawings that I completed late last year. The circles pictured here would be the equivalent of the eyes on those earlier drawings.
