There are two separate pieces of work here. The first piece, the small piece of hexagons is a continuation from my work in this post.
That one will be a very slow burner, another 'as and when' project.
The second piece, the partially worked larger piece is a cloth panel, a sample of pieced fabrics and a few embroidery techniques. This is a 'practice' piece for my new class 'a samplers cloth'.
At the moiment it has octagons, a little chain and buttonhole stitch with a few bullion knots and not much else. Later today I am hoping to add some pretty flowers, hand embroidered flowers.
The extra cloth strips at the edge are machine basted on to the main piece to allow for damp stretching. They will be removed when I have finished working on this.
