This photo is the last bit of an exercise where I'd taken a small section of a photo (in this case where the roof and two walls of a slate hut met), make a paper study of it, then cut up the paper study and do a little something extra with it. I cut along the lines of the architecture, then added 'fastening strips' between the sections. Fun to make, but I don't know how I can easily store it without either taking up lots of space or squashing folds into the fasteners. Oh well, it can have a couple of days of glory on my work table before being consigned to the flattened reality of shelf-living!

Not so much sewing!
