a reprise of this scene ...

Then there's the latest weather week, a-side ...
and b-side, which better shows yesterday's red seam for the death on the floodplain ...
 |
Not to mention Melissa's birthday towel from two weeks ago ...
with her own saying ...
 |
and a bevy of anchors to make the point (ha!) ...
which I'm calling "just okay" compared to the real thing ...

| The view from Meg's dining room |
And the addition of herbage (can you believe that's a word?) ...
to Wednesday's droughted floodplain Patch #55 ...
 |
which has already been revised in real life by 1.2" of rain this past week ...
 |
Finally, I'm now thinking of doing some agarita dyeing ...

which I'll surely do with the sweet strains of Tupelo Honey running through my mind.
your stitching is exquisite
ReplyDeleteThank you (again) ... someday I hope to try mending one of Don's shirts the way you have worked your magic on Old Man Crow's shirt. Your stitching is inspirational!

Each patch is a small piece of art. So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm learning as I go, which makes it all the more fun
DeleteThese patches are unbelievable - absolutely beautiful! Love the fabric you used for patch #59.
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan ... the fabric was dyed by Deb Lacativa, who sells an incredible array here: http://randomactsofdyeness.blogspot.com/
