paula's progress - 4

paula has been doing some beautiful work on her ongoing crazy patchwork meets doodle-stitch piece, started last summer - she brought it to our saturday stitch session yesterday and it was much admired
the blend of precision and experiment is a real delight and her subtle use of colour really draws my eye in to look closely at the detail, it reminds me of a country garden style flower bed with drifts and waves of colour and pattern, overlapping yet creating individual areas of interest
watching the way paula has taken off with this less structured approach to stitch makes me feel humble and happy that i have sparked something she so clearly enjoys


and i'm pretty impressed with the quality of the pics my new camera took - just quick snaps, in natural, murky,winter afternoon light
