Sewing and TV

I decided a while ago that I watch far too much TV in the evenings and I could be doing more productive things - like making art.

When I was little my mum showed me how to sew (both my parents sew for a living) and although I haven't done any for years I thought this would be a good way to spend time while still watching television (I couldn't quite give it up).

Spending hours stitching the outlines of dandelions has made me look so much closer - how intricate, delicate and variable this overlooked weed can be.
