The background is another of my handpainted pieces. I used both cotton embroidery floss and perl cotton. I tried varying height and width of the stiches. I also couched down a torn strip of fabric. The purple is a yarn that I wove through the stitching.
Maybe I'll have a chance to work on the next stitch this afternoon, if I don't fall asleep. Had to get up at 4am to go to work.

looks like you fell into a rythmn after a while.... :-)
May I ask a question - do you use a hoop or some kind of a stablizer when you do your handwork? I love your Take a Stitch Tuesday pieces!
Also, have you lived in Plymouth long? My husband and I lived in Ashland years ago (late '88 - '90), we both worked in the restaurant business, Ashland, Plymouth, Waterville Vally and Loon.
