'Blowy Lighthouse' - Dunnet Head
A striking 7” original handmade embroidery hoop inspired by the beauty of the Scottish landscape. Perfect for wall art and display purposes this hoop is comprised of an eclectic and colourful combination of yarn and embroidery floss producing an impactful three-dimensional original piece of art designed to draw your eye. The hoop is hand stitched on plain white cotton that brings out the most colourful aspects of this design and is securely mounted in a bamboo embroidery hoop with a silver screw fastening which enables easy hanging for wall displays.
Dunnet Head is the most northerly part of mainland here in Scotland and is indeed a very blowy, cloudy and windy place to visit and serves as the inspiration behind this original embroidered hoop. Less populated and known than John O’Groats, the area itself feels a little surreal when you think of it as being ‘Lands End’ and all that exists past here is the vast North Sea.
To truly capture the awe and impact of Dunnet Head I have combined threads in striking orange and magenta to create the lighthouse and fence as the distinct features of the piece to showcase my vibrant and lively perspective of the foliage, nature and beauty of the surrounding scenery of what could otherwise be seen only as a misty and cloudy area.
There is nothing understated about Threid Stitches, and my original embroidery hoops and Scottish landscape inspired artworks make the perfect gift or piece of wall-art to display in your home gallery or to add a pop of colour to your space or if you’re a lover of the maximalist trend, this piece would do well as a standalone statement to fully appreciate the individual details and textures that make up the embroidery pattern.
