Pussy Willow Embroidery

Do you love pussy willows too? Isn't this embroidery lovely? There is a big tree near me and maybe the owners will let me cut some this spring. I would love to have a sweater embellished with this needlework. via

MamaPea -- I couldn't agree more. Some people are real artists with a needle.

Oh, thank you for sharing! It's quite inspiring.

Your mention of cutting willow branches is the second reminder I've received today, that I want to do just that. I only have to walk a short way to the creek where trees overhang the bridge. I saw some again today but of course didn't have a tool with me. Now maybe I can put clippers by the front door...?

GretchenJoanna -- Put the clippers in your jacket pocket. I must remember to put some old clippers in my car later on for clipping wild lilacs and such in my travels. Pussy willows are certainly harbingers of spring.

I adore pussy willows and could buy bunches of them when I lived in the East to bring into the house during April. I haven't found them available where I live now....sigh.

Lovely needlework by someone very talented and patient...would love to see how it is done.

Oh yes - I ADORE Pussy Willows! I wish I could embroider - your picture is lovely:) I have a couple framed vintage Pussy Willow pictures and a wonderful hand crafted coffee mug. THANK you for sharing!
