Clara is being embellished in class. Class is called stitching a story and that is exactly what we are doing...but....we are also stitching from a story, being inspired by our story books and beginning to create stand alone pieces of embroidered cloth. My first ''stand alone'' piece inspired by Clara is being created using applique, silk and lace cloth. I could easily become consumed by this at the expense of everything else. I love its child like qualities, its happy colours...it is so refreshing.
My second stand alone piece is also taking shape. I can't say too much about that one as the girls haven't seen it yet. At the moment hand embroidery is happening and plans are forming for what comes next.....I will show you just as soon as I can......
