I have been joining sections in very different ways. There are four pieces here, two separate, finished pieces of work. One piece has silk and pleating joined with hooks and eyes the other is two pieces of embroidered silk joined with stab stitch and bullion knots. The hook and eye piece is a sample, testing options for when the main bag is finished and will require fastenings. I am also drawn to zips for that so a final decision hasn't been made yet....and then again I also have a hankering for buttons so who knows what's going to happen. I change my mind a lot. Have you guessed that yet? They don't know whether they are coming or going over in ''simply stitch'' as my mind gets changed over there on an hourly basis!!
I'm going out in a minute, there's a surprise. She who never leaves the house except to go to the shed is leaving the house to go into town. A proper big place they tell me with shops and cafes and people!!! I am going on a pashmina hunt which will hopefully mark the end of the trauma which is commonly known as ''shopping for wedding clothing''.
