a tiny home
amongst vibrant life

inspired
by last weeks painting:
It was fun to pick up needles and thread
when i did
two sentries appeared
to hold the tiny world in their embrace:
the back:
within the forests embrace
wild love beauty and grace
It is my pleasure to host this weeks DC
with the prompt: tiny
please visit my artful friends
to see how they were inspired:
may I jump in, please?

i do have to smile... this morning, as i took the train into a next town to walk around a bit, i stitched a loose seam on my jacket sleeve back together. now, i'm no embroiderer, i'm not even that good at mending, but i did have a thread and needle in hand today, and i repaired. on the train! fancy the coincidence. hahahah...
ReplyDeleteyour tiny scene looks alot better than my wonky seam. nice of the sentries to come and join you! this reminds me of my late auntie's handiwork. she was good at it, like you are here, after an own scene, no less! your poem so very well suited. wonderful. n♥
i'm in full prep for DC!

Oh my goodness Tammie, that's beautiful! I love the vibrant silky threads you used. Wow, I never thought of stitching a painting, but that's a wonderful idea. Thank you so much for hosting dearest. I love our DC so much. Such a great push to get to work. :D Big hugs.
ReplyDeletethank you Veronica.

Tammie this delicate art piece will grace the walls of your home I hope. The colours are delicate as are the tiny stitches. Isn't it amazing what a needle and thread can do! Thanks for hosting and choosing such a great theme. *hugs* N, x
ReplyDeleteOh my that takes me back to childhood - I loved, loved to sit and stitch with beautiful coloured threads. Delicious!
ReplyDeleteHi Tammy your embroidery piece is so darn lovely I like it even more than the original drawing - very very nice. I think you should do more of them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for chosing such a wonderful and inspiring dc theme.

I agree with Barbara - the embroidery is so amazing , it even surpasses the beautiful drawing! It is so charming, I could stare at those tiny stitches forever...
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, your embroidery is exquisite, it looks as though it came from another age, the colours, the design and the two sentries.
ReplyDeleteYou've painted such a beautiful enchanted picture and then you've made something quite different by stitching it.
I'm enormously impressed.
Wow, it's stunning. Such amazing stitching. Jx
ReplyDeleteoh I love your stitching Tammie! It's very ''you'', delicate, precious....oh my, just lovely. Watch out for that addiction overwhelming you :)
