Winter Solstice..... and so I was thinking about going outside and taking photos of delightful frosty leaves and seedheads, and how the sun may glint in tree branches. But - it is a rainy, dull and miserable day.... and I had a better idea. Thinking of light and dark, this side of the year and the next, movement and changes, I'm sharing here a photo of the other side - the other side of a piece of machine embroidery work in progress. This was stitched earlier today and I've added a little more since. The final piece will become a cuff. Can you see the figures here, in their green, thinking of Spring ahead?
best wishes to you on this shortest day

Love it already! There's the abstract artist in you Cathy.
Happy shortest day of the year to you too. Doesn't this seem like the real start of the year to come.
I've been thinking so much about your daily challenge and am honing in on a project I believe I can stick to. Happy preamble to Christmas to you as well my dear.
Wishing you and your family a very Happy Christmas Cathy.
It's beautiful,the threads,your figures,patterns and words.
We make a nest in our very own worlds:)

Happy shortest day to you too! I'm thinking of spring too.
Violet Goodenough arrived in the post yesterday. I read it all snuggled up in bed late last night. Wonderful!
Green thread on black! - that's different and beautiful too...
I have been thinking about your suggestions on projects for the coming year. Something meaningful, challenging yet achievable for me... Thinking about it is such a pleasure. Thank you so much for sharing!
