Landscape with birch

This is a textile collage, in which I also used paper that was processed with the momigami technique. Momigami paper making is a Japanese technique I learned from Cas Holmes. I am so happy with this new skill, it opens so many possibilities! 

Besides, I find it very pleasant to stitch through paper. I used a brown paper bag, a newspaper, a leaflet and a wallpaper sample.

To have and use some real Japanese paper in future is now definitely on my wish- and to do list!

I also used a bit of watercolour paint on the trunk of the birch and some crayon in the left upper corner.

This piece took lots of hours of stitching and I enjoyed every minute of it.
