Recently I blogged a picture of a June Chicken applique/stitchery by Indygo Junction done in 1997. In tandem with that 12 month series I also did a total stitchery for each month as well. This is the Angel of June.
Forgive me, but I cannot find the patterns, the name of the designer or anything to help you on your way to do the same stitcheries. I loved this one because of the bee skep hat the Angel is wearing.
Again, this could have been made into quilt throw or wall hanging but instead each remains as you see it here complete with loose threads hanging. Yet it is still fun to look at them each month and reminisce the anticipation of having this house built and the hopes my son would get a wife...... a GOOD wife. Uh sons do date those who we wish not for them to marry as did my son. But my son did not marry a good wife, but a wonderful wife. ....SHHHHH, don't tell her I said that.
Tomorrow I think I'll do a small amount of dying ~ I mean a really small amount but want to see what two pieces of wool will look like using my favorite High Meadow Green.
Drop by tomorrow to see what's happenin'.
Be kind to one another.

Cute. I have really been taken with stitcheries lately and this one is adorable.
ReplyDeleteI love the vintage feel of these lovely stitchery pieces. They would look fabulous made into pillows !
ReplyDeleteYou could rotate pillows with the months... ;)
