Second Quarter Challenge finished …..I think.
I think I have finished stitching my second quarter challenge. I showed it to you at the beginning of the challenge when I had just started the stitching it, here: https://feltingandfiberstudio.com/2016/04/13/stitching-some-felt-and-a-frame/
Since then I have finished stitching all the trees. I tried several stitches I saw on line at this great site. http://www.embroidery.rocksea.org/stitch/ I also made up a couple.
I also added some topography to my mountains and foreground to give it more texture and depth. I couched down the multicoloured yarn using a variegated embroidery yarn. The other yarn I stitched through the back so the stiches are not seen except at the end where I didn’t want them to fray.
I took and angled shot so you could see how the yarns stick up.
This is the over all picture. I am happy with it and enjoyed doing the different stitches. I am not sure if I should do something to the clouds. What do you think. What would you suggest?
