It's done! It's done! I did it! I did it! I'm just auditioning frame and matting choices. I think we are going with this one: coffee wood and sage matting. It's just sitting on top of an existing picture right now. I'll head out soon to go get another for this piece.
"This Piece" is all I've come up with for a name. I don't know why this is so difficult to name! I took it on Canada Day. It has all the colors of the rainbow. Any suggestions!? You all helped me out with naming
Boundless, which was perfect. I could use your help again. It's sold and I need to name it before I put it under glass. Here's the original.

I really love the purples in there sooo much, that I began to embellish anoother unclaimed one that I began. There's something about the light, bright green in the distance, and the blue hills that feel so magical to me. It was inspired by this postcard, for the
My Happy Place swap.

So I happily combined my favorite parts and spent much time stitching purple and lavender and cornflower blue yesterday morning. Let me tell you I loved every second of it! I used fine rayons that are so full of sheen.

I love the feel of this one. I will put heavier masses of purple into it plus some stems. (Eventually.) Here's a close up of the free motion machine & hand stitches.
Thanks for dropping by!
