Sitting quietly in the company of my boro piece.....
A star tapped me on the shoulder and asked to be included.
So stitching started on a small star.
As I laid down row upon row of satin stitch....
with another tap on the shoulder the star said 'weave me'!
Why hadn't I thought of that earlier?
It was so obvious....
woven cloth had played an important role in the basic make-up of the piece.
I see the hint of a moon looking on.
We woke to find frozen stardust crystals had been sprinkled all over our world.
They sparkled in the morning sun.
Penny, your photos are all lovely today, but I am especially enthralled by the woven star. Awesome! ~Suzanne
ReplyDeletebeautiful, penny! not only the amazing snow-crystal photos, but your wondrous shoulder tapping star! i love needle-weaving and often forget i even know how. funny how things you've done for so long are taken for granted and forgotten until some creative soul taps you on the shoulder with a star and reminds you of what you have misplaced in memory!
ReplyDeleteJust love your star! I can see how it started taping you on the shoulder.
