Fabric paint and embroidery.

 

New embroidered work.

Fabric paint and embroidery inspired by this collection.

There are lots of French knots and tiny snippets of cloth embellishing the painted areas along with a little running stitch.

There's along way to go with this one. It's developing over in class.

Small applique circles on each piece is the next step.

I will play with the placement of those later. 

Feeding creativity

 

It's time to take a closer, more considered look at my current design project.

I have created and gathered a large amount of work and sometimes I'm blinded by it all.

Today I've collected a few pieces together for more focus, (less clutter) in order to move forward.

So now I'm digesting the information here, in this image. There's more clarity which will help the decision making and hopefully generate ideas going forward.

If you'd like to catch up on this current collection there are several links below.

Progress

 

There's been progress with this piece, you last saw it here.

It's turning into a patchwork piece....unintentionally.

I like it though. I especially like the patchwork flower. 

I like the flower so much that I've made extra.

They will not be used here though......or maybe one would fit in that empty corner of gingham.....hmmmmm.

Pin pillows

 

You were very enamoured with my pin piilow the other day.

Thank you!!

Today I thought I'd share my pin pillow collection with you.

You can never have too many pin pillows. 

Complimentary pin pillow.

 

Who knew my new buttons would match my old pin pillow?
