It seems like a long, long time since I concentrated on purely embroidery, no sewing machine, no paper, just my hands with needle, thread and cloth.
My upcoming sewing circle will allow for more of that, more hand stitch and traditional embroidery techniques.
You may have noticed a lot of sampling of hand stitch in my recent posts. (you have been bombarded)
That sampling has allowed me to reconnect with past work, past choices, colour, stitch and pattern.
That's what I have been doing this morning too, looking at this wrapping cloth, my happy cloth for inspiration.
(It's called my happy cloth because it makes me happy!)
