Blog > A Beautiful Stumpwork Protea

Good morning Stitching World! Today I have a lovely Protea to show you by 83-year-old Pat van Gool, from Johannesburg.
I met Pat when I was teaching in Johannesburg and always admired her workmanship. She made this lovely Protea in Jacqui O' Connell's class in Linden, Johannesburg and don't you just love it?

Here is a close-up view.

Hope you have a good day today and thank you, Pat and Jacqui, for sharing this gorgeous piece.
This is a picture of a King Protea that I saw when I was hiking on Table Mountain last week. It still has the dew on it, can you see?
