Woman of the woods
Working towards
BodiesA couple of weekends ago a group of friends travelled to the woods in West Sussex and set up home in a Mongolian Yurt. Being a blustery and wet weekend we had the entire camp ground to ourselves.
After a walk to see the steam engines at the little local station we got incredibly wet.... didn't see the steam engines and returned to our Yurt and jumped back into bed.
Out came the embroidery and the woman of the woods appeared.
On Sunday we foraged for mushrooms...... they were delicious.... and none of us got sick. There is no work to show for that one.
Returning to London found my body heavy and sore, then came bodies.
The ambition to create a much bigger embroidery was born, well not quite, the incubation period is still running/ has been for a years. So working towards is the beginning of the birthing process. A few more stitches on the other twin and an A3 size piece will begin.
