Canal Lanterns in Embroidery
Stitches join canal, bridge and lanterns.
✍️ The two lanterns are needle-painted in orange-red satin stitch, and the eye-dots are like the burnt-sugar glaze on a char siu bun, warm and glowing. French knots do the sheen on the water, stitches pile up into a plush feel, and the boat and roof are deliberately shrunk so the bridge doesn't lose its place.

Embroidered illustration of a small bridge across a blue canal with two orange-red lanterns beside it. Visible satin stitches and French knots on cotton ground, restrained boat and roof proportions, warm light reveals thread pile, no text.
