I decided earlier in the week that today would be a free from embroidery day. I did a free form piece back in February and really enjoyed it. I had a super busy, somewhat mentally exhausting week, so I thought a little free form stitching would ease me into the weekend. I had a half day of work today, so I ran errands after work so I could come home and get started. I wanted to include a couching stitch, but that was pretty much my only plan. The guidelines took on a life of their own, and when I sat back after finishing the couching stitch, I didn't want to add anything else. I don't know if it's done, but it's done for now. I like the figurative quality of the design. I also feel like I'm being pulled into it, like the way I felt this week.
Details:
Stitches: couching and back stitches
