This piece has had more work since you last saw it here.
There is another grandmother's flower garden patchwork on the surface along with a couple more small stitched pieces.
I intend to keep going with this, altering this surface by adding more 'lace like' stitching with my sewing machine along with more silk velvet patches which will then be embellished with gingham patchwork.
When this piece is completely embellished I will begin a new piece and add it to this one, making the most of the seam.......decorating that with hand embroidery.
