I bought this Ikea lamp and shade months back for £3 at a bootfair and until now it has sat in a corner gathering dust... Look at what a difference a few hours of freestyle embroidery can make. I used Tapestry Wool as it was bolder, thicker and brighter than your average floss. I also particularly like the pattern the stitching has made on the inside it looks a lot like line and dot drawings! You can have a go at this project using any plain fabric shade you may just have to draw on your shapes first.
