JUST A LITTLE GRUBBY...

Today we went for a stroll around the mountains where we live i was quite pleased with myself as i managed to walk a fair bit unaided we saw quite a few jays and what we thought was a honey buzzard pictured below. when we got back i have to say i was really exhausted but i went for a walk whoo hoo im chuffed about that.



These are some pictures i stitched for my springwood i was thinking about adding frames but decided against it they are now hanging in the stairwells of the house they look pretty good too


Heres a little rug i stitched for megs hovel i used a few shades of green and used three strands of thread and sometimes two strands of thread to give a worn effect it looks good in the hovel nice and worn and a little grubby too i didnt want it to look too new its just right but i do prefer stitching cleaner looking rugs i think i'll leave grubby finishes to paul lol...

    Great that you managed to get out for a walk Rachel, even tho as you say you were exhausted when you got back.

    The tiny flowers are so pretty!

    I had to laugh at you not wanting to 'dirty up' that rug, but it looks great :)
