Today your quote is from an anonymous source once again..."Life is like a camera....focus on what's important; capture the good times; develop from the negatives; and if things don't work out, take another shot"
AMAZING!! You have outdone yourself, Mary Anne. Your barn is a work of art. All that belly gazing was worth it. =) Your stitching and design is such a wonderful interpretation of the photo of the barn. Aren't you a clever lady. Love today's quote, so very true.
ReplyDeleteoooops....of course I meant "all that belly button gazing"!! =)
ReplyDeleteIt's fantastic! I know you struggled with the greenery but I think you found the right solution.
ReplyDeleteWow, your barn turned out beautifully! It is truly a work of art you should be proud of!
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely work. And thank you for showing us the progress all the way through.
ReplyDeletethis is an amazing finish especially after you agonized over it so much. the stitched grasses added so much movement in the forefront. It is just so pretty. Proud, aren't you!! You surely should be.

Beautiful work, Mary Ann.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips. Eira's tiny embroidery work is amazing. I like her advice when
asked 'how do you do it?' She says, 'Patience, patience, patience.'
Super quote.

I am in love with your barn and it resembles the photo so well. Your rework of the grass area certainly did cause you some angst however your finished piece is bliss! Preserving our wonderful old barns in fabrics is a loving and fulfilling Labor of Love. Well done dear. OMG on the miniature embroidery by Svetlana! I am speechless!! Great quote today...<3
