Hi everyone,
Jane here.
The countryside in Berkshire/Oxfordshire is looking so green and lush at the moment, it must be all that rain we have had! Three months rainfall fell overnight last week, but the good news is the hosepipe ban has been lifted! The first thing that sprang to mind when I thought about Green was green leaves, as seen everywhere whilst driving around.
I have used the set embroidery stitches on my machine and stitched leaves and the words "Green Leaves". The background was from a piece I have just coloured up for the Design To Stitch course I am studying with C & G tutor Shelagh Folgate. This month we are working with one colour and mine is green! How lucky was that!
What lovely threads! Pretty!
ReplyDeleteA real piece of green, how lucky and fortuous! A great tag, love it. x
