Noticing Little Stuff

I'm still getting the hang of hand work. Mostly I'm just too darned impatient. Eventually I'll get around to working in more detail on the leaves in the top, and maybe some background detail.

At any rate, here's my finished Take It Further Challenge piece for March. It was fun to work on and it grossed out my youngest DD because she's no real fan of bugs.

You can see all the inventive things people have crafted for this month's challenge HERE.

I'm ready for April. Bring it on, SharonB!

Work In Progress


Just a teaser. This picture is taken with the zoom function on my camera. The hemp-like open weave is really a very fine batiked cotton fabric. I further note that the colors seem washed out compared to real life. This is a small part of my March Take it Further Challenge piece.
