This is the final overlay for my current piece over in artist book class. I spoke about it this particular artist book here a couple of days ago. Once this is embroidered we can put our books together in class. This one has buttons along a seam....... because I wanted to, because they are pretty, because I was in the mood to adorn....there is more work to do on this, more seams to enhance, edges to embroider. This one has more weight too, I have included silk velvet along with metallic silk tissue. The velvet is beautiful to handle and to embroider into and is a perfect contrast for the metallic silk.
I'm running late today. I had a leak under my sink. Just what you need on a Saturday morning...kitchen paddling. Drawing on all my plumbing skills of which I have none I think I have fixed it. Let's hope I'm not tempting fate....stay tuned.
