After 11 1/2 months, I finally completed my Joyful Meadow. What started out as a way to use my grandmother's old thread evolved into this. My tactile prozac. Scratching an itch I never knew I had.

@gparenti it’s beautiful, so many colours and textures

@gparenti

I love this. It's a work of art and a labor of love all in one. 💗

@gparenti Incredible! I love the way you’ve done the sky, and the flower meadow beneath the cottage. It has such a sense of depth.

@gparenti this reminds me SO much of a french children's book I used to borrow from the library all the time when I was little. Thank you for the reminder, and nice work!

@gparenti oh wow, this is absolutely fabulous!!! So much love, work and talent in this, well done!

@gparenti That's stunning. It reminds me of Grandma Moses paintings. Thank you for sharing it.

@gparenti

I love that you have something so tangible & beautiful from your grandmother’s thread!! 🥰

@yelof gorgeous! My mom just sent me a picture someone made of a quilt of tiny scraps. I don't think I have that kind of patience. @gparenti

@artcollisions you and me both! But I sure do appreciate seeing others excel in that area. Absolutely beautiful work, @gparenti

@gparenti gorgeous. Wonderful work.

Have you purchased your own thread now? 😄

@exlibrarykris I'll confess I had to break down and get more green. I found a giant spool at a vintage store in France last summer which will last me a lifetime. And when I went home, my sisters loaded me up with all of their unused supply. I now have more than I started with!😊
