While the morning glory climbs

the antique fence and blooms in different colors

I work my needle to create the perfect blooms on a linen tablecloth

It only takes a glance for me to get inspiration from nature

and to then  try to interpret it from floss

and into stitch. 
 I just wish I could be as fast at making them bloom as they do in the garden!

  1. Hi K
    I like you stitched Morning Glories. They are one of my very favorite flowers. Any bell shaped flower captures my heart. For years I would buy seeds then forget to plant them. For the past few years I have remembered and planted DARK purple and DEEP blue shades. This year I forgot to put the little trellis up like I usually do. They wound themselves around a sticker bushy bush I have. They are very impressive....a big ball of flowers and vines. Maybe next year I'll try a fence!

  4. I love all the additional stitching you do in your work besides just outlining something. You've certainly captured the beauty of the morning glories.

  8. Perfectly lovely, once again, Kathleen! I love blue morning glories, and used to have them growing in my backyard along the fence of my former home. I miss them. Your tablecloth is a great way to bring them indoors. I know what you mean about how much time it takes to embroider...but it's well worth it.

    Blessings to you, my friend,

    Marianne
