Slow Stitching Sunday


 I have been working on this project for a few years.  Never steadily.  I wait until I have a bunch of threads on needles that need to be used up.  Is it silly that I can't waste even a few inches of thread?  Maybe it is but it is a fun way for me to stitch.  There isn't a lot of space left on this piece but I can find room to cram in some more stitches.  

This is the second of this sort of project and it is getting so close to finished.  I used oil pastels to create the scene.  They take a while to thoroughly dry.  I think I better get to work on painting my next one.  It will need time to cure before I can stitch into it without creating a big mess.

    Your landscape is gorgeous, Angela. I admire you for saving and using every last skerrick of thread.

    Wouldn't this be perfect for a page in a children's picture book?
    You have created a dream landscape anyone would love to live in.
    BTW, do you press in the crayon with a sheet of parchment paper and a hot iron?

I am not a gardener but I do love flowers.  It is so much fun for me to get out my macro lens and spend time photographing flowers up close and personal.  I am linking with http://www.shinethedivinecreativityisaspiritualpractice.com/ and http://macromonday2.blogspot.ca/

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
