Fall colours, fun fiber art bookmarks

After being a bit frustrated by not being able to get out walking, I decided last night to drive to the trail instead of walking the short distance as I would have without the hip problem, taking my camera with me for a photo shoot.
I strolled a bit with my walking polls, stopping every now and then when something caught my eye. A few wildflowers are still clinging to their blooms.

The mountain ash berries always catch my attention.

Then there is the pretty patterning of the changing ferns.

A fiery display.

I love the bits of green that still flow through the veins of the leaves.

I can see why I have such a fixation on birches in my fiber art. I'm sure there will be more to come.

I took a few dozen wonderful pictures and will have many for future reference. I'm feeling better knowing that I can still get out a bit into the trails and went to sleep at peace last night.
This morning, I tackled this monster zucchini, grating some to freeze, and to make a gluten free chocolate zucchini loaf that I'm trying out for my daughter.

Of course I had to sample it! It tastes good! I may have to make another one.
After that, I've been playing in my sewing room, having a bit of fun with my bookmarks. I'm a bit looney, I think, putting all these details into little bookmarks, but it's so fun when it's nothing serious. I think you feel a bit more freedom to just pull out any fiber bits. Does lace go with canvas? It does now.

How about some Angelina fiber?

 

Sure, why not?

I reined myself in and called them finished, adding a backing and doing a zigzag border around the first one.

I don't do them for sale. I'll stash them away to be used for gifts.
