back to Stitch Club

After all this time felting and stitching
for my Pink Ribbon challenge
I finally have time (and energy) again
to join in with one of the Stitch Club workshops,
this time by Dionne Swift

I've "known" her work
for quite some time and like the way
she uses the sewing machine.
Her way of transforming a landscape
into a line drawing
and later into machine stitch
is far more abstract than mine will ever be,
but I loved the workshop.

The translation of a photo I picked from the net
(thanks, unknown photographer)
in colour, after I first did one in only black and gray.

(I LOVE it when rapeseed colours the edges of the roads

at the end of April !)

The first try

Well . . . colour is more me

And the sunny yellow of the rapeseed
was no coincidence when you see
the bright Ginkgo in our garden !!!

This was last Saturday,

with still a hint of green
. . . . .

today it is golden
and leaves are falling already !
