Missing Pieces : A Patchwork Version of the Covered Sea Stones Part 2
If you want to read background on these stones just go to the last post. I just worked 12 hours and find I am a little short on words this evening. These particular stones were so time intensive to make . They might not look like much but to get the pieces to fit together smoothly over the stones surface was a challenge. I am not sure this is something I could ever produce in quantity for my etsy shop when it opens but I may try to dream up a less labour intensive version when I get a chance.
Nature is creating it's own fantastic colorful patchworks these October days.
I will be back tomorrow with some hidden gems.

Your stones are so lovely! I know
I keep saying that but I am
breathless most of the time when
I look at your site. tonight when
I was looking my 12 year old was
laughing at me and told me to
calm down! I also love the way you
photograph them... the last stones
look like they are waiting in line
... wonder what they are waiting
for... one looks like it is
fishing ... I love the boat in
the hoop too! The stones when
sewn like this looks like they
have windows.. lovely! I love the
one that looks like it has a
horse in one window and a bird
flying in another, it is the 3rd
photo down rock on the left.
You could use fabric and make a
I spy game on your rocks! Then
add a paper or sew the words on
the cloth bag that it came with!
That is if you ever put it on
etsy.
I am once again breathless at the
forest you get to wonder to.
The leaves look like quilts!
I love the 2nd to the last it
is of tree branches but if you
look at it close it looks like
the patterns of your rocks!!
No wonder you took that photo.
The design of the rocks must be
in your head now! Beautiful...
Mother earth is the greatest
artist I think, every year the art
is never the same, an original
everytime!! She is the greatest
crafter ever.. out of dead leaves
and old rotten wood she crafts
mushrooms, moss... and such! And
when for her big finally she
gives us all the colors of the
rainbow so that when the snow
covers all like a curtain we are
still talking about the ending!
Thank you for your eyes and camera
that you share with us the beauty
you see.

Margie, with your beautiful photographs you don't even need to worry about the words, they are worth one thousand words! I wish you to recover from you hard day at work so you can wake up tomorrow with lots of energy!
Take care and lots of love!
And I cannot wait for you to open your Etsy store!

i think i love the second stone even more! oh, and i promise you some more amazing fall colour photoshoot opportunities if you make the drive up this weekend ;)
Margie, I think I can imagine how much time you spent in these little treasures. They are so wonderful! I love everything about them and to leave some space as a kind of "symbol", is a wonderful idea. x Sandra
Actually, I'm on to all these Bolshevik tricks and I have devised a secret contorted torus counterweapon that is extremely sophisticated and is now handily defeaten the communist baccilae everywhere. In many codes of ethics and in a growing number of laws, the intention/expectation of the person making a post is important in determining what can be done with that post. In terms of privacy there are two issues.
Gorgeous, gorgeous work on the stones, but I understand how labor-intensive these must be to have them for sale.... I am thrilled however that you are at least offering images of them on your shop!

Those stones are so amazingly lovely. With each photo I enjoy them more. How do they feel when you hold them in your hand?
