The second of my Festival Season series of stitchings is complete. I have called this one after the Celtic May festival. The hedgerow is just bursting forth. It is my favourite month of the year and I would rather mark it in Ireland than anywhere else in the world.
The lace in this stitching was a very lucky find. A woman in Spain was retiring from making communion dresses and she was selling off her trimmings. It has been 9 months since I started on my stitching journey and one of my favourite bits is hunting down fabrics that I can use. I haunt the charity shops and I can now see when a pattern on a fabric might become something else.
Heading into my winter stitchings now.
