Two for the price of one!!



Today I collected more flowers plus a beautiful card! I hope I've done them justice here. Actually when I scanned the card front in the picture showed a lot more colour and depth than I could see with my naked eye! I am honoured by the page - Ruth says she has done so much more handstitching on those tiny flowers than normal, they are beautiful, thank you Ruth. But the border is scrumptious-layers with sheers then bound with a lovely silky cord. This is a page of many parts; thank you so much Ruth

  1. Wonderful work! And again, I'm so fascinated by fabric techniques that I have never used. Well done Ruth.

  3. What a delicate page. I love the range of greens and gentle colours used. I must investigate lutrador. I have heard of it befoe, but never considered this technique.

  5. The red flowers are Indian Paintbrush and the white ones are beargrass. It's based on Montana wildflowers.

  6. This is a stunning piece! I'm intrigued by how the Lutrador looks. It will have to go on my list of things to play with! Ruth, you did a wonderful job!
