I love to stitch flowers......but I also love to stitch butterflies. The day Monica's hand spun thread arrived, a pale yellow butterfly was flitting in and out of the flower beds. I thought to myself....that needs to be stitched!
The color of this thread is called peach....
as you can see the hints of pink throughout the yellow. I stitched this in closed buttonhole stitch. Visit Monica at Just Ducky bloghttp://justducky48.blogspot.com/
While I was out walking the grounds, I spotted this cute little bug! I thought to myself.....he needs to be stitched! What are your favorite kinds of bugs? Butterflies...lady bugs...bees? I cant wait to hear.
The butterfly looks great and they color is so pretty! I love ladybugs! My Grandmother always called me Ladybug when I was a kid.

I love butterflies! I live in Mariposa County. In spanish Mariposa means butterfly. Right now the bees are coming out as I have beautiful blooms on my rosemary bushes.

The butterfly is so pretty. I love seeing your work. I've always been partial to butterflies, anyway. I like how their wings look like stained glass. I think of them as God painting them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
