It’s been awhile. I have some study commitments, and like most, have to hold down ‘a real job’. Fortunately, it’s one I love, and I’m learning new things every day.
I haven’t stopped though, just slowed to a crawl. Here’s what I have been up to in the meantime:
 |
150+ mushrooms, slowly, slowly. |
So, I have talked about this one before:
I have done a couple more, and here they are in order of production:
Those ones have been created on some hand-me-down cross stitch material I have had lying around the house for years. Now, I am starting to think about what else I can cross stitch on. It just needs a clearly defined and evenly spaced weft and weave, right?
 |
Raffia placemat from the best op shop I know (you know who you are) |
And to top it all off, I am expanding my stitch repertoire:
 |
Stitch types: Long stitch, back stitch, running stitch, cross stitch |
 |
Trying to be artsy with the detail. |
So there you go. Works in progress and recent experiments. I have also been delving into macrame, and wearable art. More on those later.
