How can I have the patience to take over 4h to stitch the above, incorporating a carefully selected piece of beach glass, bullion stitches of up to 25 needle wraps, pistil stitch, buttonhole bars, french knots, colonial knots, spider's web, woven wheel and yet not find 20 minutes to repair the hems on two pairs of trousers? Classic case of cobbler's children.
I love this spring evening light that allows the texture to really show. My own little Durdle Door on these detail photos.
Precious beach glass at right
Why? Because this is beautiful and trouser repairs are NOT!!!

ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. I think all artists must be cobblers' children. :-)
