As July becomes a realty I finish up a new-to-me punchneedle design. Obviously it is not geared to summer -- but I do love this autumn design and had to get busy on it, even though the Fall months are no where near. This design is from Doreen Frost's imagination and skill. I have heard people say that they prefer to create their own designs and I would have said that myself at one time. BUT these days the idea of starting from scratch just does not appeal to me.
As I stitched this piece the only change I made to the design was to use reverse PN so that instead of the loopy finish I ended up with a textured, almost drawn piece.
It so pleased me to sit here in my studio punching each stitch and watching the design become real. Where is your creativity taking you these days?
