Half a mile to Pittenweem - colour

using what threads I had to hand I quickly knocked up this darned sample.

its obviously unfinished but it looks quite horrendous...

Things to work on:-
the direction of the warp and weft, especially in representing perspective.
the weight of the thread... use textured in foreground OR keep it all stranded cotton...
get the tones right... consider variegated threads...
do some samples on layering colours... colour of fabric, warp and weft. I feel an equation coming on...
