Finally an opportunity to do a little stitching outside in the sun, a lovely breeze keeping the midges away. Only 7 pics this post, I'm giving you a rest after last time ;)
This mug was given to me as a present by my Youngest a couple of years ago, he has no idea how touched I was!
I made up some 'patches' to work on with a bit of tv of an evening, just stitching along, no pattern.
The idea is to one day put them all together as part of a big piece. Not sure how big, but I've a way to go & my exhibition is in 6 weeks! The feather above is from an owl - I was given a bag full from some naturalists down the road here who found it already dead & thought of me ;)
I made a piece to shape into a heart. I've been working with so much color lately it seems I needed a change!
While sitting outside today I was admiring my Wisteria. A tricky plant to get for a windy place but it was for my 50th & it's only taken nearly 4 years but I had at least 3 racemes this year for the first time!
& all those delicious tendrils to tie in to the top of the pergola at the back of the house, too. Here's to more stitching al dente ;)

All together; a suggestion
