Curly Docks and a bit of Autumnal Stitching

The friendlier looking seeds of the Curly Docks are also ready to spread and multiply.....

 
while their leaves below are ageing with glorious markings and colours.


Autumnal colours used in a piece of needle weaving or darning.

  3. Ohhh, Penny! Your photos are wonderful (isn't that a weed?) and your weaving is such a perfect reminder of the colours of the changing season. BTW, I still have the small coat hanger frame that your husband made for our class. Perhaps I should pull it out and see what I can do!

    Love the needleweaving (looking forward to seeing how you did that) and those leaves are so beautiful...I'd like some material in those colours and natures design.
