I bought this book a while ago......
....it is beautifully presented....
....I have so many pieces of hand dyed fabric in different textures thought I would make up some colour/stitch samples-slow stitching is so relaxing...
...pinned and ready to stitch...
....fabrics are muslin, scrim, silk, cotton, linen , velvet and indigo dyed cotton lace....
...chose a variety of threads...
....the result, I really wanted to add orange thread but resisted the urge this time!
The shape on the left is a short piece of wool yarn which I couched.
Think I might choose red next......
....also want to try some layering, texturing and heating samples, very therapeutic to play!!
