Embroidery Sampler for Lesson 5

I haven't posted in a while. I've been busy trying to get an appliqued tee shirt finished for my great-granddaughter, Macyn.
This sampler is an experiment in painting my own linen. I used fabric pens, one of which turned out to be a neon color. So, the piece is pretty wild. I'd like to go on to do Lesson 6, but Christmas activities are in the way. Maybe I'll attempt the challenge next year.

I'm having my 79th birthday on January 3! Yikes! I'm almost 80!!! I sure don't feel that old. I want to take a watercolor workshop in the south of France next summer. I feel I need to get into shape for that. After the first of the year, I will definitely start doing Pilates again.
