This is the start of a small hand stitched peice, with patterns based on a printed fabric that I liked.
I can't remember where I got this piece of silk from. It's clearly the leavings of a dressmaker, but I'm not sure where I got it from, perhaps my late MiL.
It will grow slowly, just a few stitches each day.
The other project is only similar in that it is stitched through wadding! This is the back of it, showing the dense machine quilting - still to be finished, as it is a landscape that is only quilted as far as the horizon currently and it also needs some more thread sketching for additional details too. I think that the biggest challenge will be blocking it at the finish to try and persuade it to lie flat!
Lovely to have a variety of project so you can choose which one you fancy working on! Xxx
