I want to remember this: (via Swissmiss), the CMYK embroidery project.
CMYK embroidery is a hand-made printing process, based on computer generated halftone screens.
Images are halftoned according to conventional screen angles: Cyan 105, Magenta 75, Yellow 90 and Black 45. Dot screens are the transformed into cross-stitch screens, printed on paper and marked for embroidery. I use cotton threads in CMYK colours; the intensity of colour depends on the number of strands used. The final outcome is a printed page created by hand.

I have altered the text accordingly, Evelin. When I first published it, there was another picture (by Ernesto) serving as a header. My apologies for any confusion.
