Miniature vegetable garden in stitch.


Trying out my new camera that I had for my birthday. I have got the date stamp on it so will have to change that! Anyway I am making a miniature veg garden for an exhibition at the Guild Gallery in August called Grow your Own. First came the cabbages now I am planting carrots. It is fun to make something quite bonkers for a change.I intend to work the embroidery and then make a raised bed.
This is one I made a few years back complete with trellis so you get the idea.

    1. Thanks. I made the one below in March 2014 when i was making a series of miniature gardens on box tops and to be put in box frames.They are good fun to make and the complete opposite to minimal artwork!
