Buttonhole bar

Tast stitch #65 is called buttonhole bar 


 
I filled the center of the leaf with a couple of buttonhole bars
I wonder what will come next -
it is the intuition of the moment when I am stitching

There are also some knotted buttonhole stitches on the right side

(It would certainly be better to show the whole leaf -
however so much for the moment)

.......
During our cutting of the fir trees and burning
the branches we nevertheless took care of this little cripple tree
not knowing what will come out of it -

We bought the old house last year and the garden was more than wild looking
so this explains our ignorance


 

and there was a surprise when the days got warmer



 

and looking closer I was delighted to find this




 
 
 
A magnolia with very large blossoms

Taking care in all this wild cutting and cleaning
was so much worth it.
