Rose

White berries

 Yes, another botanical photo plus embroidery-in-progress! It's all I seem to have these days, I'm afraid.  

Can you believe that beautiful white rose braved the hail and almost-snow to bloom, all alone, on an otherwise very bare plant? I had to bring it inside before the wind got it.

The all-over embroidery patterns on linen have been constructed into a new set of project bags to send to Loop London (I sent some last year – you can read more about them here.)

This particular pattern features crosses and white berries. Snowberries?

    a beautiful embroidery! I love the dark grey linen, the lighter flowers pop like little snowflakes on it.

    I’m preparing a slow cloth right now, just for the meditative quality of the stitching. The botanicals are so effective on that grey!
