I'm sharing photos I took in Kentucky at the Royal School of Needlework (RSN). Owen is showing how to cover the wires using a buttonhole stitch.
The wires are anchored with tape, and and then using a tapestry needle and three strands of floss, the proscribed length of wire is covered with buttonhole stitch.
This photo shows how the stitches build along the wire, which is continued only until enough wire is covered to outline the corresponding wing part. I'll share that process next.
