One of the fun parts of starting a new embroidery is choosing the colours. There's something beguiling about sorting through the threads in my cupboard and imagining all the possibilities.

It's winter here. The light is less intense and the days are short so I'm going to use bright, cheery threads. I think I'll add more warm colours as I go along.

We are having a very cold snap in Queensland. There was half a metre of snow with blizzard conditions in the Snowy Mountains way down south, and icy winds are making sure we can feel the cold here too.
I'll tell you more about this project as I go along.
'Till next time, happy stitching!
