blackberries turning black........

in the hedgerows  I now know autumn is around the next bend. Full of oranges and rusts, golden coloured floating leaves enhance every footstep in the woods. Gradually everything is coming together each a new piece of the jigsaw slots together and the exhibition is taking shape. Five minutes snatched from a busy day allow me to photograph and share new characters and finished stitching. Today before I go out for my afternoon walk I thought you might like to see the singing birds and Empire animals. Singing birds feathers are wire and stitched layers of fabric arms poised ready to breathe life to a song that will carry on the wind.
