sky & stich

The winter sky, reflected in the lagoon near to where I live. Strange how the sky didn't seem quite that shade of blue when I took the photo? Cerulean.
Seed stitch on different fabrics; at the bottom is the walnut dyed silk; top left is onion dyed cotton; 2 re-cycled slices of red silk stitched onto a cotton/linen fabric dyed in a black bean dye-pot. The black on the right is gifted silk.

  2. Thanks Debbie. The repetitive nature of seed stitching seems to really suit me. It's a way I can 'draw', and make marks on the cloth. Course it's also about not having lots of skills in other stitches! Hahaha!
