It's coming together, the final pocket from class. This is where I was up to yesterday, an embroidered front and an embroidered back. Since then another section which shall remain nameless for now has been completed. All three pieces have been damp stretched and this has moved on enormously this morning, on camera.
The circular embellishments you can see in the first image on the left are also pockets......three small one large. There is piping cord snaking up the front too, secured with colourful bullion knots.
Embellishment on the reverse has been kept to a minimum although there is something else to add there. The curved line comprises bullion loops with French knots at their base.
I am hoping to have this finished later this week. Then I can concentrate on my little books and the other pockets I have been putting together.
Thank you for the feedback from yesterday's video. I appreciate the positive e mails more than you know.....
