These pieces were seen briefly in yesterdays video so here is more detail. One of these is a sample for my sampler cloth, applique and patches with a scattering of hand embroidery stitches. The other, a piece of lace cloth I created myself which has similar colours but provides a very light and airy contrast.
I am going to have to leave this work for a few days. There is the pressing matter of the pouch to attend to. I'm not on a deadline for that, well not a looming deadline but I would like to get it finished during this run of simply stitch. I started it with this group, they know the ins and outs of it, the reason for it, I would like to finish it with them. I am however massively excited about big pockets...huge pockets....an idea...one that I talked about in the aforementioned video. I wish I hadn't thought about it, or spoke about it because I can't seem to think about much else now.
Note to self....''control yourself Karen, you're not 3!!''
