Winter Trees and gadgets


These are my Winter Trees from a workshop with Alison Holt.  The background is silk, painted with a sky/sunset and the trees are worked in a hoop, then applied to the scene.

 



I have a new gadget/attachment for my machine, which sews the patterns in a circle.  It's interesting how different the stitches look when worked in this way but unfortunately the outer pattern was not a goood choice, giving a d'oyle effect.  However, this is only the first experiment!
