Tansy, Yarrow and Rue


I wasn't feeling up to par yesterday.  So I stayed home and stitched intermittently instead of running errands.   This is my progress on my latest Pineberry Lane piece.  I am stitching it using the recommended DMC on Silkweaver's 28 ct. Golden Surprise linen.  I am loving the very subdued color palette: muted browns and greens with just a hint of antique gold.  These are just the colors that a woman isolated on a 17th century Dutch homestead in the Hudson Valley could have made from the natural materials available to her.

Good progress, I stayed home from work yesterday too... not feeling too great either.

Hope you are feeling much better today. Great progress even though you were sick.
