Grasses and More from Landscape Features: A Notebook Class by Gail Stafford

I used the distant trees/mountains on the right to explore 3 more stitches.

There is the Pine straw and mulch at the bottom of the tree on the left and around a tree on the right.

There are several grasses and grassy clumps. The tall grasses didn’t encroach enough on the right side. I think part of the problem is that I separated the threads, so most look laid, and 2 of the 3 greens are too close in color to each other. Plus, I kept rows too uniform and horizontal. Then, on the left side, I didn’t separate threads, angled more, and encroached more, and it looks better to me.

This was a very useful class. I still have areas to test more stitches at a later date.
