Embroidery artist Katrin Vates has opened our eyes to all the ways the art form can be used. While embroidery can often seem kitsch or amateur, Vates elevates it by creating detailed, subtle landscapes, complete with soft foliage and cloudy skies.
The level of detail and intricacy in the work is admirable, each of her many landscapes taking dozens of hours to complete.
From dense fall foliage colors to detailed gardens with moss and flowers, we are amazed by her skill using nothing but needle and thread.

Your stitches remind me of the strokes of a pen or pencil in drawing! Remarkable hot to creat an image with needle and thread!
Can these works be purchased?
Just incredible!
