Slow Stitching Sunday
I have been adding to my forest floor fibre book. Some stitching was added to some leaves. Often I grab for my regular cotton thread but this time I dove into my precious silk stash. Oh, how I love stitching with silk. I have a good-sized stash of it and need to just use it. Enjoy it. There is no point in saving it. Saving it for what?
I also have added to the pages of the book. I was finding some mediums a bit difficult to cover. I decided to give my permanent markers a try and they work wonderfully well. I haven't gone digging for the hand-dyed cheesecloth or lace as yet. I might find time for that today. They will be attached with adhesive since stitching won't work. I think they will add even more interesting textures.

Delightful little fall leaves coming together. Your work is so creative and beautiful! Happy stitching! -Andrea
ReplyDeleteYour leaves are so pretty! Love the forest floor book page, too - makes me think of hiking on a trail that is thick with leaves and pine needles. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour forest fibre book sounds like a wonderful project.
ReplyDeleteYour forest floor will be covered with a rich carpet, silk and embroidery... Wonderful.
