Landscaping




I don't very often make the suggestion that you watch something before you work on a square, but the video that goes along with this week's music is so spectacularly diversely colored as landscape inspiration, that I would hate for you to want to switch out your colors after you had already stitched your squares.

The pattern this week for either square is in fact the same pattern technique no matter what colors you use. That's one of the wonderful things about colorwork. Once you've mastered the technique of changing colors, the world is yours!
Remember, those of you who haven't ever done any stranded colorwork, this square was intentional designed to accomodate your mistakes! If you miss a change, or decide to do just stripes instead, this square can take it. Every landscaper has a different vision, the important thing is to work it....

Tread lightly on your landscapes. Color them with memories of the sea. Next week is intarsia!
