Weeping Willows were a popular motif for the Victorians. They were used quite often in Mourning Samplers as well as on their Crazyquilts.
So, today's detail is for a Weeping Willow tree. Stem stitch the trunk in a brown thread and then stem stitch vines and leaves (lazy daisy stitches) with green. This would look cool worked with those gorgeous varigated or overdyed threads!
Happy Stitching!

We had to replace pepper and tomato plants in the garden, and now those
are failing. Again. My flowers are suffering, mold is seen on the bottom
stems...
