These are a part of a series of Kantha type embroideries I am doing depicting parts of my life, in these two, motherhood and my shell collecting. I saw a class run my Dorothy Caldwell at Horsham a few years ago and was taken by this style of embroidery. It is an on going series as I think of a new phase im my life!
We have had over 2 inches of rain and everything is wet, muddy glistening and wonderful. Now for a few follow up rains.
The friend I had staying has left, we hadnt really seen each other for ages and had a great few days catching up, talking ponies, looking at ponies and wandering around looking at the sights, I took her to see the Murray Mouth as she lives up the other end of the Murray. A lovely few days, but busy! Our Welsh foal show is tomorrow so that will be pretty busy too.

Beautiful! I'd love to see some more from this series.
Oh wow, these are WONDERFUL!! I'd like to see more of this series too.
Spectacular. I love the graphic, "drawn" quality of these. I'd love to see what happened if you interpreted some of your landscapes with this approach...
These are wonderful!
