Needlework and Nebulae


Looking for inspiration for a new project? Gord Reynolds, one of our “night Hookers” sent me this photo of an article on needlework and nebulae. It’s from the April issue of The Walrus magazine and looks quite interesting. If you can find a copy of the magazine it wb a good read. It’s on the work of Margaret Nazon, and a quick google search brought up several other interesting articles online, and lots of photos! Absolutely stunning!

Here’s one. 

And here’s another. 

That got me thinking......these wb great rug hooking projects, ones where you can use up whacks of stash.....hmmmmm.....

So I googled a few things and came up with some interesting images. The first set are needlework kits available with a celestial theme. The other 2 are just planetary images that I like.

If you google “nebulae” or “planets”, etc. you’ll get a whole whack of images that you could transform into your own masterpiece.

Also, here’s a link to a set of copyright free images using the term “galaxy”.
