It is too hot to knit. Not even the siren song of my KSD cashmere sock yarn can entice me to pick up the sticks. I've been really inspired by all of the embroidery posted over at
Feeling Stitchy, so I decided to do some of my own.
I sketched out the trunk and branches and did the leaves freehand. The fabric is some old velvet I've had in the stash forever.
It's by no means perfect, but I'm pretty pleased with my first embroidery effort in years. Perhaps there are some pillow cases or tea towels in my future.
