As you can see my sketch book is always used for exploring line, colour, composition and just experimenting and having fun!
It's useful to record all my visual thoughts.
By working the stitches on to the boiled wool I was able to create furrows in the land.
The sketches I use as a guide, I will change aspects and develop pieces as I progress.
I do get frustrated some times, as I just wish I had more time to devote to my art work.
I'm sure I am not alone in this!
I had better get back to my sketching.
Hope your having a good week.

Nice to see the sketchbook, and the way you stitched the grass in the embroidery is really stunning!
A wonderful piece, again!
Beautiful embroidery Kayla and always lovely to see how it links back to your sketches.
You are amazing!
You are always creating great works of art.
Well done.
beautiful work Kayla. the landscapes pulls a strong 3d effect.
That is so amazing! You are so talented - I am so happy to have found your blog... even if it's just to soak up your lovely work!
Hi Kayla, I have just discovered you via a friend perusing Etsy. I love your work! The way you capture depth in your landscapes is so inspiring. I could look at them for hours, and then travel into them in my dreams!
Wonderful. It is good to see your sketchbook and the work together. I just wish I could draw, your work is stunning.
Gorgeous work as always.
Great to see the transition between sketchbook and actual worked pieces.
lovely lines, marks and texture created in your piece with the base fabric and your lines/layers of stitch.
Beautiful ;0
Just beautiful...it reminds me of the landscapes of my childhood..which I regretfully took for granted...thanks for sharing....have a lovely weekend...H
Super! I love seeing the conceptualized idea transformed into the actual art piece. (And seeing others artists sketchbooks always thrill me!)
I think sketch books are just as exciting as finished work Kayla coo. I wish some of them could be published as they make fascinating reading.
Hello, Your landscape of stitches are very pretty. Another great piece of art. I also struggle with never having enough time to play. Hugs Judy
So lovely. Really makes me want spring to get here. I like seeing the sketchbook to finished product.
Hello, my friend Flower and I have just discovered you! We find your work very exciting and inspiring!!! We are both exploring the wonders of embroidery and your little vignettes are just fabulous!

This is lovely as usual. I did some landscape brooches last year and its veryt soothing to stitch thos lines. Mine were teeny weeny ones though.
Great work! I like the depth in this picture.
This is just wonderful. I love the movement in your sketch and am impressed by the way it comes out in the stitch. I especially love the lines in the foreground. Gorgeous colours too.
I LOVE that you are showing your process. It's amazing to see what it looked like in your head. You have such wonderful creations. I'm really impressed.
