and a bag with precut threads lives in my backpack for stitching on tubes and trains as I catch up on podcasts (though sometimes this happens in the garden too) -
On my design wall -
Before the reorganisation of scrap boxes |
Two weeks later |
The one on the left is part of a fancy skirt from the charity shop, with metallic thread added. The one with the white lines was once a leaf made with metallic organza; I hope the heavy stitching with thick thread will leave a white area -
Another bit of the skirt is ready for a sprinking of glass beads -
They'll be photographed individually before slip-dipping and firing. Much of this is still experimental, to see what kinds of fabric and types of stitch work best.
