At least there is some brain space now for other things. Green inspired lots of ideas, including 'not so much green as cabbage looking' but in the end I went for 'The Owl and the Pussycat' in their 'beautiful pea-green boat'. I stitched it in 2 strands of white stranded cotton, using stem stitch. I added a green ric rac loop, probably more use for hanging this is it has turned out rather large!
Just lovely, who doesn't love the owl and the pussy-cat!? Valerie

ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet tag, it really is a pea green boat!I can't believe you had the energy to do a tag whilst putting on the private view! I will go and take a look at your blog now. I absolutely loved my Foundation course(Access Course) which started me off on my creative journey.

I haven't done much in the way of stitchery, but my grandmother, mother and wife are very good at it. Therefore, I have a real appreciation for your tag. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute tag and that's one of my favourite poems from my childhood.
