Finished Pieces of Work

 Karen has finished another interesting page of her holiday diary. A little while ago she visited Northern Macedonia and remembered swimming in  Lake Ohrid where harmless, non-venomous water snakes were also swimming.




The watery background has been sewn using a circular sashiko pattern that looks like waves and the snakes are made from kumihimo braids.

Thank you Karen. That is a very ingenious way of representing your "lake swimming" amongst the native species!



Sandra has completed her landscape picture with a sashiko frame.
The landscape has also used sashiko patterns but in a more random way.

The landscape has a sun rising above the hills with trees either side of a stream with flowers.

The trees and stream are made from kumihimo braids. The flowers are cut from Japanese material and secured with pearls.
Thank you Sandra
