cross stitch jewellery

Our cross stitch efforts tend to end with prickled fingers and a few wonky stitches, so we have to tip our hats to Caro Baertling, whose needlecraft nous is so full-on she now embroiders metal. Caro's 'darned' silver jewellery is an attempt to create new old favourites, she says – the kind of object that immediately seems nostalgic and precious – and you can see it all over here.
