I am still so very impressed with how those Wonderfil rayons really make the water look like water.
I'm also at the point of hand stitching this piece. I haven't shown you yet. It's a new take on Bloom. It's 3x9 inches... vertical! I love the feel that cropping things differently creates. Here's some pretty close-ups of the work thus far.

Check this out. I was wandering aimlessly around a department store, looking for treasure to perk me up after a week of tending to sick me and sick children. (Do you ever do that?) I found it! Bernat decorative bundles of yarn fibres. It's a 'scarf making kit' at Zeller's... but I have other plans for these pretties.

| mmmm... couching, couching, and more couching : ) |
No kidding! Zeller's for ten bucks each. Nice. There's a heck of a lot there! I'm impressed.

I love all you pieces but the October piece really speaks to me. Perhaps it's because It is a scene that I would see around here as well.
Those fibers form Zellers are beautiful. Now I'm wondering what you'll do with them, ha, ha.
Your work is just gorgeous! It's hard to say enough. I hope you and your family will be feeling better really soon. Sorry for taking so much of your time this week.
Wow Monika!! That water jumps at me...beautiful. They are always beautiful..you have a real art.
I love the pieces that you are currently working on...loverly.
Re your Zellers find....thank you for that tip. I saw something similiar at Walmart here but much more expensive even though it was on sale. It was a kit for a designer scarf.
Wow! That water is wet. very cool The layers in your work are amazing.
Oh that I could walk in your works for a moment.. they are such magical places. Hey, how about A Golden October? And that new yarn... funky and awesome... looking forward to seeing what you use it for!
You work is just beautiful, Monika! I'm leaning toward October Eve. :)
