Spiral...

14


...found walking this morning amidst the most beautiful hoarfrost,
an ice spiral
 with a red alder leaf at its center.

This is for T...


...who is weaving some grasses on her side of the world,



stitching it back together in her own quiet way.

  1. Well thank you.

    Might be a while before you can weave this frozen grass Christi.

    How fantastic that you are inspired to stitch grass too.

  3. WOW! That's beautiful! I love the spiral. You have to do something based on that image. It's been along time since I've seen anything like that! But I remember frost in the grasses from when I lived in the UK.

  10. Your hoarfrost and spiral photos are exquisite, Christi! Could anything be more beautiful than grasses covered, each tiny blade, with frost, difused sun's rays making each glow with its own light? No, I think not!
