I wanted to use the same pinks as the maiden for the mother’s dress, for a sense of continuity, but I’ve balance the mix towards the darker shades for a sense of maturity

This blog is solely for textiles, with a little bit of silversmithing now and then, and will mainly be for my historical stuff.
Please do not use my images or pin them without permission.
My interests range from ancient greek to tudor periods, and I tend to be an artisan rather than an academic - not that I don't do research, I just prefer getting my hands dirty.
I dye, spin, weave, sew and embroider, and have been doing so for several decades...

Good idea. I also particularly like the hand on the toddler’s shoulder. She’s clearly stopping child from investigating what the dog is doing!
I’m still not sure if toddler is trying to pet the dog or play with poo
Poor lass, she’s got a lot on her plate!
that was the idea!
