Gypsy’s Homestead was inspired by many things I love. I originally made it just for myself and then decided to share it.  Gypsy, my childhood horse started my journey and I quickly added in a primitive log cabin and a meadow of wildflowers.  All while sitting on the deck of our cabin watching my little Moe enjoying watching the birds fly overhead.  So much inspiration everywhere I looked.
I love the blues and browns together, so decided to go folky and make Gypsy “Faded Indigo”. The background is Salem Linen along with a piece of ‘1692’ wool stitched to the side.  I enjoyed adding some different elements, such as twine for the stems and my love for antique textiles had to be added.
