In preparation for my new class, (you can read more about that here) I have started another needle case. I'm testing ideas for adornment, sampling seams and tape and stitch placement. Whilst working on this I'm making mental notes of new ideas arising from this, taking it all in and writing it down.
One of the fabrics has bled on this piece, the red one. I am shocked. I have used this fabric many times in the past and it's never happened before. It's a mystery. I am scratching my head again....the piece isn't ruined, I'm just irritated and perplexed.
I haven't forgotten ''artist books'' either...our 12 months of playtime with pages. We are a few weeks into that, looking at embellished scraps, creating surfaces, examining new ways to create a page. Today I am leaving needle cases to one side and have plans for working with paper which I hope will feed into our next class post.
