Remember I said I was starting a 'secret project' when I was on my course in Cornwall with the lovely Anne Griffiths, I am now going to show you the stages, it has been a real learning curve.....
....A&J bought a house, I drew it from the estate agents photo...
.....placed calico over the drawing and traced with pencil....
.....next used a mixture of fabric/acrylic paint and a very small brush....
....I should have used unwashed calico as the paint 'bled' into the fabric....
...after stitching, mostly hand stitching which I really enjoyed doing....
....unfortunately the door is on a bit of a slope which I didn't notice until I took the photo!!!
I think I might like to do this again and get the bay/door more upright!!
Anne's community project can be found here....
...definitely worth a look!
