you're seeing things much bigger

A Happy May Monday to you! it is a bank holiday here, and it's rainy, blustery and cold out. But oh well....

I'm working on two 'big' projects during May. One is stitch and one is poetry. The stitch you can see a little of in the photo above. What you are seeing is a detail, enlarged. I am stitching a large, intricate, many many many faceted embroidery artwork. It is in my 'moonlit' style, so there are many tiny faces and patterns, attention to detail. It is growing slowly from the centre-ish outward. The final piece will measure perhaps 50cm in length. I'm considering this will be a piece to work on each day, for several weeks, and expect it to take most of the month (working on smaller projects along side).

I'll hope to share more work in progress shots as the stitching grows.

Also, through May I'm working on a sequence of poems with the working title 'here and there' (I think that will change, but will see). You can read more about the poetry and read my daily posts over at nevering.

I'll not be updating my shop this week - but will be updating next. I'm aiming to offer something new most weeks from now until the August summer holidays.

Well, I am not sure I will get into the garden to do much today, but will be spending some time stitching and visiting family. I hope you have a good start to the week. More soon x
