Back to stitching. For this month, I wanted to make a try at capturing a little piece of the forest around here where I live. This time of year, it’s dark and wet and gray. But not in the trees. They are pines and fir trees, green all year. Then there is the moss. It’s

I am ahead this month! Actually it wasn’t planned, but I was working on this little project and since it was the same size as the others, I decided it could be my journal project. I started it out as something of a study in using different yarns to help add interesting textures and surfaces.
