I was drawn to the door but every time I looked at it, I saw that lonely little plant and decided that was what was needed. I wanted to bring it out…..in time for Spring.

I painted the fabric to give the touch of colour in brick and outlined with split stitch.  I wanted the planter to stand out so I did pad that area with layers of satin stitch, adding a little grey to shade.  The leaves were done with detached chain. The stone in the ground was completed with lattice.  It was fun to do.
