Great Wyrm Needle Book

The great wyrm needle book is finished.  The embroidery is stem stitch in DMC cotton floss on linen.  The hand-stitched edging is two colors of linen thread in a modified fishbone stitch.  The ties are lucet braided cotton crochet thread, and the tassels are hand-made from the same cotton crochet thread.  The pages are wool felt.  It is entirely hand sewn and hand embroidered, over a total of 58 hours including design and preparation.
