better . . .

It's always best when you make something
to leave it, standing alone
where you can see it from time to time
. . . . .
Often you know after a while
that there is still something
that need to be added,
removed
or altered.

I was not totally satisfied
with my print-and-stitch collage.
The white tissue paper with the printed twig
was definitely too white
and drew the eye too much

So today
out came : my wonderful, much loved Karisma pencils !

(ohhhhh I'm still so sad that they don't make them anymore
and so many pencils (of the 72) are so very short !!!)

Done ! and with an extra bit of sunshine
to see the stitching better !

Now and then, next to each other
