Nature's and my stitching

Nature is working - hm stitching on this old stone trough

I chose softer material
but using the trough as background actor
 
my little round something - a "lie-about"

 

 

I used Tast stitches: Buttonhole - chain st. - rope st. - one sided feather st. - French knots - spiked knotted cable chain - a row of beads and wrapped coral st.

And to show the actual size

  1. A charming 'lie about' in your garden, and good use of various TAST stitches. Isn't the Spiked Knotted Chain fun to make?
    The natural stone decorated with moss is impressive, too.
