My sister requested me to embroider this poem so the words could inspire her.
My sister loves florals so I embellished the poetry with appliqued buttonhole wheels in different sizes.She picked the colours of the tussar silk border and they work very well with the other inspirational pictures and objects she has on the walls beside her little writing desk.
I forgot to measure the size of the finished piece but its about A4 size or a tiny bit bigger.
Which poem inspires you? I like the pictures which Sarojini Naidu's poems paint, in poems like - Bangle Sellers and Coromandel Fishers.

Thank you Shilpi for stopping by and leaving a comment. Appreciate the appreciation.
A truly beautiful poem and a stunning gift for your sister. The choice of fabrics, the buttonhole wheels and the embroidered text - all just absolutely perfect. I love your work.
Thank you Marta.
Absolutely lovely.
I am inspired by the work of Robert Frost, and Mary Oliver, and Jane Kenyon's "Let Evening Come"...
And by your poetic stitching.
Maya, Your creation is Captivating! Color, Care, beauty of Design, workmanship, Concept... You have created a Treasure!
