Vintage Broderie Anglaise is pieced here with new Broderie Anglaise. The vintage pieces are so fragile, they rip if you look at them the wrong way!! This is the latest pocket to be created in class. There are tiny pockets embroidered on the surface but mostly I have been paying attention to the seams this week.
I have big plans for this, it will take some time. There are more patches of vintage cloth to add along with new cloth which I hope will add strength and contrast. Then there is the surface embroidery...there will be scraps placed behind eyelets, loops on seams, French knots in clusters, running stitch outlines and chain stitch........
