Palestrina stitch

My Palestrina stitches -
A cactus has maybe to do with my present life in a new house and garden. The house has to be renovated, the garden is a jungle and has to be cleared - cats are walking in and out the house, goats are eating the leaves of a spindly raspberry - out came the
Palestrina stitched cactus


This time my colours are really identic -
it seems that my camera likes the green and blue tints
(like me)
