Latest Piece: Anchor



I've been assembling pieces to decorate the wall above my bed. I have some pieces that friends made for me, from embroidery to paintings, a sun burst piece, a dream catcher my beau's mom gave me and a flashcard of a Dulcinea. I decided that I wanted a larger piece, something grounding, something stabilizing. An anchor came to mind and I quickly went to work on it. Recently I've been stretching my work onto wood frames and kind of, but not totally, abandoning the embroidery hoop frame I've used for a while. I'm really happy with how it turned out and not to jinx myself, but last night, the first night it was up on my wall, I slept so hard and so peacefully. *contented sigh*

xo,
