And You Thought Pirates Were Tough Stuff !

I've been at it again.  Two years ago there were some SERIOUS dandelions flourishing like you wouldn't believe.  I know they are foreign weeds... but I can't help it.  I thought they were pretty.  I snapped a lot of photos one afternoon down Floral Road, and had my eye on this one particular scene for a long, long time.


Should I?  Dare me to?


I accept the challenge.  French Knots, here I come!

(ten!)
On guarde! -

(one hundred and forty)

Take this -

(two hundred and sixty two)

Take that -

(three hundred and forty five)

I have a looong way to go.  This one is headed for Manitoba.  I shall not give up.  ; )


Linking up to WIP Wednesday at The Needle & Thread Network.

oye! We do have our fair share of dandelions. I hate what they do to flowerbeds and lawns and that is long after their pretty flowers and seed heads are finished!

Oh my, I love danelions! Any way I can stake a claim on this one? I would even pick it up in person as I am planning on driving up to Winnipeg to see your work in person.

You are hardcore when it comes to french knots… I have never managed to master that one. I bet you could do it in your sleep! :-)

Exquisite! I love French Knots and you are doing such a great job by keeping them consistent. I keep gazing at your your threadpainting. I so want to take a class with you but live too far away.

I don't know how you do that many. Let alone keep track of them! Is the green background fabric commercial or painted? It's perfect.

Awesome, I hope you keep on counting. It'll be fun to know how many it takes.

Great card even before you add all those dandelions.
