I make things, take too many pictures, and post them here.

The King of Carrot Flowers, Parts Two and Three

In progress.. Should have been done a month ago, but I only managed to eke out some drawings then. I was busy making Jears!

"..the dogs dissolve and drain away"





Same linen as Part One. Using grey thread here, with black in the bobbin. I'm going to use a slightly darker grey thread on top for definition in a few spots. Also, I'm planning to use other colors in the bobbin to see what it does to the thread tails on the right.

Since these pictures were taken, I added a little more black around the outside parts. It still needs to be blocked, but I think I'm done for now, until I figure out how to mount it.
