It must not be a rolling stone...

Because look at all the moss it gathered!


Next time I do this I will use a darker gray ground linen, to be more like real stones.

Lots of fun though and totally "organic" in feel.  It's not "organic" in materials though, I love the effect of the varied texture synthetic fibers. 


I used Rainbow Gallery "Fuzzy Stuff" in a buttonhole wheel stitch to make the fuzziest parts, you can see one pretty well in the center of the above photo. 


Wouldn't it be cool to mass a bunch of these together in a "rock garden"?

    Hi Jessica, thought I would stop lurking and tell you that your rock is brilliant! They would look great as in indoor garden with some little pot plants, maybe some little cacti...

    Thanks ladies! I have a nasty cold so haven't done much stitching this week but I am excited by the "rock garden" idea and have a couple more stones in the works. :) They are fun, and quick!
