palestrina knots

here is my latest TAST stitch for this week, when I saw it was palestrina knot which I know as double knot stitch I wanted to do a tree, rather small I am afraid but a tree never the less.

I just love the tree. Now just add this to one of your crazy quilts! The fabrics you have used in the recent posts are beautiful. Did you dye them yourself?

Your tree is doing well over at SF; it is almost at the the top of TOP PHOTOS.
Well done!
