I started this travelling page several weeks ago but it was a very stop/start project.
I had space-dyed several pieces of cotton with Brusho and from those I selected a piece that I thought had an Autumnal feel to it. The design, by Sam Bourne, was published in Issue 8 of Stitch Magazine in January/February 2001. I have been exchanging Travelling Pages with friends on the Embroiderer’s Guild forum; this design must have stayed in my mind because when I came to do a page for a member who loves trees and oak trees in particular, I remembered it.
I found the instructions very easy to follow.
I enjoyed making the component parts ...
... and assembling them into the finished design.
Happy Stitching

It's delightful! I love the texture of the acorn cups - it's just right.
This is a lovely piece. I like the different techniques and yet the simplicity of the design.
The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn...
I love this one too....
