Still here...

Hello.  Yes I'm still here, still crazy busy with work, school holidays and painting the lounge (yes still!).  But I am slowly progressing my layered piece.  I think I have done more stitching on my scrap cloth than I have the actual piece, seeing if this stitch will work or that one.

Anyway... here it is... I think my wee clover needs to come out, the colour is too un-naturally green.  So I'll redo that and put some more around about the place.  The whole thing doesn't look all that lichen-y, but I'm enjoying the lack of a plan and just winging it.



Speaking of lichen.... I stopped back at the Doctors the other day so I snapped a couple of pictures of the back fence (that I mentioned a while back covered in moss and lichen).  Its just a crappy old unloved iron fence but I do love how nature is doing its best to reclaim the wood.  I took the photos pretty quickly because I was worried the people living OVER the fence would think I was a weirdo taking pictures of their houses haha.  Who would've believed me when I said 'Oh no! I'm just taking pictures of the moss on the fence!' - of course you are Miss - NOT!!! 😆



I love that top photo.  No idea how to replicate it... but it still makes me happy.

Thanks for stopping by!
