I’ve been working on a number of small projects, fitting them into slivers of time in the meagre 24 hours there are in each day.
I love these darker green nuggets of sea glass, paired with a very pale hand dyed linen background.
The way they take the light is just beautiful so I’ve left them alone; just surrounding them with a scattering of random seeding stitches in one strand of space dyed green/brown stranded silk thread .
Dense seeding close to the sea glass,
which becomes more widely spaced the further out I go.
I’m working this in my hand, as it’s only about 4″ square, hence the creases.
It’s not quite finished, but is something very calming to work amid the bustle of life at the moment.
The sea glass colours are lovely, aren’t they!
It never ceases to amaze me how many different shades there are.
This shade of green is one of my very favorites – it always seems so peaceful. I love the way you’ve scattered the stitches. When its finished it will look exactly like each stitch was thrown onto the fabric.
The colour is very soothing, I agree. And I’ve really enjoyed the rhythm of the stitching too.
