Sky Scrapers
Stuff grew on my dune!
I did some background sewing using the machine but most of the grasses were done by hand. I also had to split threads a lot of times into a single ply, to be able to get those narrow points.
I’ve learned you can run an unthreaded machine needle over painted sand or rock areas to give them more texture. Also not a bad way to make distant footprints or tracks on sand or snow. For even more impact, thread with a thickish thread, run over the areas you want, and then unpick.
This dune is in South Shields, north-east England, also excellent for curries, fish and chips, and ice cream.
