I ‘Paint’ Using Needle And Thread
17Kviews
Hello. I’m Meko Gelashvili, 23 years old girl from Tbilisi, Georgia. I’m an embroidery art lover. I also love photography.
I’m using satin stitch embroidery and ribbon stitch embroidery techniques. Each artwork takes 1, 2 or even 3 weeks to finish. I hope you like it.

This work is breathtaking! I scrolled several times through your work trying to absorb all the colors... especially the water reflections. I am marveled at the fine stitches. Do you also sell your work?
Thank you so much! No, I don't but I want to sell. But I'm leaving in Tbilisi, Georgia
Sell online! Take up close photos of stitching--those are remarkable!
These works of art have to be the most beautiful things I have seen. Your speed in producing them is insane. I am in awe of your talent.
Thank you so much!
Meko, are you able to sell your beautiful work? I live in US and would love to own one. Do you have paypal available?
They are all beautiful!!
Thank you!

Thank you so much!
These are so stunning! It must have taken so much hard work and patience to finish them. They are so beautiful!!
Thanks!
Absolutely beautiful!! You are incredibly talented!! 💗
Thank you very much!
I cross stitched for the first time last month. I had no idea how hard it could be. I have a huge respect for this! Its beautiful!
Thank you!
This is absolutely amazing! I would love to buy one of your's works! Hope I will some day afford a piece like this <3
Thank you!
Very cool. What are the sizes?
Thank you. For example, "The Kiss" is 32x22 cm, "Cafe Terrace at Night" is 38x32 cm and etc.
They looked massive.
This is very impressive work. Even if you living in Georgia (the country, fyi for the U.S. readers), I expect you can still internationally. There are regular international posters on PB. You should browse the pages and ask for advice on how to sell. Good luck!!
Thank you!
The nature scenes are sublime. The number of shades in the flat areas like water reflections\path\stairs is astounding. You could sell on etsy.
Thanks!
These are so amazing, I've done a little bit of embroidery, and I had a difficult time so you have my respect
Thanks!

Absolutely amazing.....I'm speechless
Thanks
This blows my mind. I am still doing stamped cross stitch kits. Your skill is astounding.
Thanks
Wow I've never seen this satin ribbon technique before. You seem to use that one over the painted or printed surfaces to add dimension and color and then it looks like you use with the traditional satin stitch to add more texture and color and light. Well done!
Thanks
This is amazing i been cross stitching for a month and find that hard enough.
Thanks!
Wow! Amazing!

oh wow oh wow
Thanks
Awesome! :O You capturing similarities works better as a painter!!! :D
Thank you :)
they all are too beautiful to describe. they look so real. hats off to you :)
Thank you!
Unbelievable!! If you can part with your pieces you should try and sell them on Etsy. But send them insured and with notification if they arrived!! And don't undercharge. If the thread is high quality and won't fade, they'd have to be several hundred Euros each, if not more.
Thank you!
Exquisite work! You could maybe try a macro lens, or lower angles to really showcase the depth and dimensions of such work! Could help you sell your work!
Thanks!
Amazing!! how do I get one? Do you sell them?
Thanks! Yes, I want to sell them
You have a great talent, keep practicing. It's already stunning at your age. Who knows where it will lead. I love the Van Gogh ones, They are full of grace a,d beauty
Thank you!
Wow absolutely beautiful
