Summer's End Keepsake



We've done the "Y" shaped stick - a weaving of yarn and flowers... this time I was thinking of a frame.
A frame for the end of summer's glory, hmmm?

I made my frame with four sticks and jute.

And a lovely yarn that we have around that we dyed and hand-spun ourselves.

Madeleine wanted a heart.  "'Bout this big," says she. 

And she'll take that pretty sky blue.





 So I took some creeper vine, and shaped a heart for her.  Easy enough.

In and out goes the yarn weave, in no particular way or pattern.










 Lovely!
