A Finish and Flowers


Design - "Be Mine"
Designer - Heart in Hand
Fabric - 32 count Flax Field line
Fibers - GAST - 2 strands over 2 threads
Started - 26 February 2011
Completed - 10 Match 2011

This project uses an interesting colors palette.  Two different ones - the border is April inspired - Evergreen, Oatmeal, and Peacock. 


 The interior then uses Garnet, Claret and other February inspired colors, while the heart itself is a March inspired Hyacinth.  


Early March is all about yellow and bluey-violet.

This display of pansies at a local transit station inspired me...

...to buy and pot up a couple more pansies of my own.

This two-year-old clump of daffodils could not be happier.

I'm hoping that the crocus will begin to bloom while the iris reticulata are still going strong - I think the colors will be complimentary.
