Thread Visions

The Landscapes are growing, not in quantity but in size.
I have been working on this one for months, it has engulfed me both physically and mentally.
Last weekend I did manage a few days away staying with my sister and enjoyed an evening at The Royal Albert Hall.
We saw the opera Madame Butterfly, which was extremely beautiful and moving.

This week I will continue working on the piece above and also another larger textile wall hanging.

I am so pleased to read your blog again and to see that you are attempting something large - much more difficult I think but maybe the natural extension to your skills do you think?

That IS big! I feel for you...working so hard. I hope it still excites you with all the pressure its easy to get jaded, but it looks as if your work is just getting better and better!
