week 41--leaf

Yep, it's been a while... Wasn't completely stumped by this one; clearly not wild with excitement over it, either. Caught by the concept of leaves--the green ones--I couldn't think of any particular way to represent them until recently when it occurred to me that paper can be 'loose leaf'. An 'aha' moment. So I stitched blue and red lines on interfaced white fabric, punched holes in it, and hand-stitched it to a leafy background. The edging yarn doesn't really complement the work but serves its purpose.

I'll try to not take another 16 months to do the next one...

Commercial cottons, machine stitching, decorative yarn.
