I am not very good at doing detail, seems to me I like a more representational idea, probably because I am too scared of making a total muck of what I am doing. I had picked these roses and they were at the point of falling and looked lovely and blowsy.
Any way this was my attempt at doing something yesterday in between a farewell for our local MP and an introduction to the one hoping to take his place and trying to get another bit of textile stuff done. Would have been a lovely day for a walk.
The vase these roses were in is an old spill vase I picked up for $2 in a second hand shop a couple of years ago covered in orange paint, when the paint was cleaned off it was a rather lovely little thing. Treasures can still be found if you are lucky.
