The happiness tree

I went out for an hour this afternoon to visit a craft fair. It wasn't very big, but I had a nice chat with a crafter who uses all recycled materials. Her stall looked lovely, she has some interesting ideas. There was also an Open Gardens event on but I didn't join in with that. It was too hot for me to walk around 29 gardens.

My latest wall hanging is now finished. I put the back on with the machine, sewing the two sides together right sides facing leaving the top open, then turned it the right way. I added the loops and closed it up, and hand stitched around the edge with dark blue thread to keep it flat. It measures 18 inches by 15 inches.

I wanted a bit of detail at the bottom of the tree so added some felt and French knots.

The running stitches add a bit more interest, I think it works well.

The background was supposed to be something else, but it suits the tree.

I'm pleased with that. I am a bit reluctant to start another picture now as time is getting on, only four weeks to the exhibition. I need to check all my pictures making sure they are in good condition and ready for sale. I need to give them all a title and price them, and make a list. When all that is done I'll see if I have enough time to make another one.

Now I have to go out and water the flower beds and pots. It would be nice to get some rain. Brown grass everywhere, I long for green grass. Oooh, there's a song.
