There is so much detail for a 2-inch square. I LOVE the way you made the wall and the path. The gate is wonderful!
Thanks. I had some size 13 seed beads which just fitted the size of the gate. I love doing these as they are so quick to do, on my 7th today, then gonna try a Twinchie puzzle, printed out a picture in 4" square and cut it up into 4 Twinchies so it will fit together when done. Got to make sure it all fits together when done.
Wonderful! What did u use for materials?

Thanks, Felt and beads. The stones at bottom are bits of shell.
Love your beautiful work. I, too, am an Autumn gal so I especially appreciate the colors.
Lots of detail in this one Suzy, well done.
Thanks. I feel the weather and colours of Autumn are the best of the year, Summer is too hot, Winter too cold. Spring is tolerable just, but often a bit too wet and cold still.
Thanks Sandra, I love doing lot's of stuff in them, makes it more interesting to do.
Will have to try a twinchie one of these days. You sure pack a lot into a little space.
You don't have too, anything that is 2" square is allowed, one of mine is a straight mushroom embroidery. Number 5 I think. Will do more of those too, but my main love is the flower, cottage, wall, thing. The 6th I just finished has a more complicated cottage and the one I'm on now number 7 has one too, I might have gone too complicated on this one as it doesn't seem as right as it could be to me, but I'm my worse critic.
I once saw someone do a whole one with fabric with flowers on it and just enhance it with embroidery. So anything goes. I like the speed of them, my 4-5" pieces took months to do these are almost 2 a week. And every one if different, even if I used the same picture it would never turn out the same, its how I think of it at that time that makes what it will turn out like, and when finished I can see how I'd change it if was starting it again.
