Napa valley in needlework


We are visiting A's parents this week.  Here is one of my mother-in-law's latest finished needlework creations;  she was working on this the last time she visited us.  The sky is interesting in that the thread is merely woven through the canvas instead of trying to cover it all up.   This purposefully reveals the painted canvas, thereby highlighting the gradations of color.

I also especially love the rows of lettuce - they have great texture when you examine them closely.
