Well, this morning I cut some templates from an iron on embroidery transfer. This is one of the modern transfers, why don't they make them blue anymore?????
And hey presto.....the template becomes the feature of the patchwork piece. I am sure there are more possibilities from this technique and I am definitely going to look at this further. For the moment though, I really want to push on with the text hexagons and get near to completion of my current cloth. I feel happier now, knowing I have at least given you something different to look at today.
Yesterday I went to Leeds. I was out until the early hours of this morning supporting my son and his band in a 'battle of the bands' competition. They are SOOOOOOOOOOO good, (o.k. I know I am biased,) but they really are, check them out here and well done to James, Chris, Allisia, Al and Patrick for storming through to the next round!

I'll be watching to see what ou create out of your new hexagons. :) It does look interesting.
i have found that blog world is one of the only places where having different projects going at the same time has its advantage. i often switch back and forth just to give my readers a break. i know how you feel.
Your work fascinates me!
i am curious about the transfers. do they transfer?
your work is so tidy, and the white silk so sensual. if I were to try this technique i fear i'd end up with transfers transferred everywhere like so many weeds in the garden.
What a genius idea! There are all sorts of possibilities to explore with transfers and I expect you will pursue some of them. Great band btw.
Hi Karen,
I've been trying to get an e-mail through to you just to say welcome back, but it keeps bouncing back to my mailbox.
That new idea with transfers looks interesting. I preferred the blue as well.
