Embroidery is a very tough craft to perfect. It takes a great amount of skill to embellish a garment by adding a sewn pattern with just a needle and thread. And this skill has been mastered by the British Textile artist Amanda Barnes. The talented artist devoted a lot of her time to the creation of realistic-looking embroidered animals.
That’s not the only highlight of her works, though. She likes to embellish them with tiny pieces of jewelry like beads and rhinestones, which gives her artwork a unique charm. From cows to roosters and giraffes, let’s now take a look at some of the best embroidery works by the artist.
