Decisions!

I have managed to do a small sample with some of my new fabric. This piece will be cut up, you know me I have to cut up, probably into patchwork pieces but I haven't decided yet. Please excuse the pin holes at the edge, It has literally just been unpinned from the damp stretching board and I wanted to get my pictures before the rain and dark came. This is such lovely fabric too, 100% linen, and my other new stuff is also linen, very 'domestic' but different colourways and patterning. I am truly itching to work with it all but I think I neeed to take a deep breath and think for a while.

I now have all these samples for my new series of swaddling bands. My problem, apart from not having enough hours in the day, is which one to finish first. Despite these pieces being narrow the technique used for each one is still extremely time consuming. So, I have to decide which one to finish first. Actually I don't know why I said that, I have already made up my mind, the one with the red check.

Now the next obstacle, as I may have mentioned before (doing cartwheels around the house!!!!) I am on holiday next week. Straight after work tomorrow I am going away for a few days so there won't be any embroidery happening before monday. My trip however will be a huge pleasure and I am so looking forward to it. I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and I will see you sometime next week!x
