The final piece of the pile puzzle is coming together. When this is finished I will have six embroidered pieces to list in the shop along with four little artists books. I spoke a while ago about my need to be restrained, to not list things singly but to wait until I had a few pieces, make more of a statement. I was setting myself a challenge, a challenge not to get excited at the completion of one piece but to be patient and wait until there were a few different pieces, titivated, ready. I did it, I didn't itch to list things as badly as I imagined and here we are, almost there.
If you look at the second image here, the silver kid leather I have added seems oddly spaced, wrongly spaced. There is a reason for that, a reason I hope is evident when you see the piece folded in the final two images. I'm not sure what I will add to this yet, I keep glancing at this piece as I pass it on the table, thinking.....It's quite a small one, folded it measures approximately 9 x 4 inches....very small in comparison to other pockets I have made recently.
And I do love the way the lace frill hangs off the edge in the bottom image
