In these images back and front are merely tacked together, in reality they are properly sewn, running stitch edges and flat seams. I reached that milestone a couple of evenings ago but as you will know, no light for photographs.
Now I have a tiny dilemma. I am making really good progress with swaddling band one. It will be finished by saturday. I am hoping so much that I will have good light through the day and then I can get images that do it justice, but, I wanted to show you something completely different at the weekend. Do I show you both things, or do I keep band one to myself for a while, guaranteeing enough posting material through next week? Decisions, desicions.Thanks Ulla for the photo tip, I think it worked! You're a star!

It is beautiful Karen.
Lovely work; now I can imagine the whole length of the band, too.
I'm glad my experience with blogger gaps helped you!
Your photos are so good! I know that the beauty is in your embroidery! So original and pretty!
By the way have a good year!
As always Karen the photos are beuatiful. Can I ask you about cut work? I'm not familiar with it and don't know how to do it or (other than your stunning work), it's applications.
looks such a peaceful piece to work on, beautiful
Looking at this makes me feel very relaxed, as if I can feel the love and energy that you put into it. As always, beautiful work!
Very exciting work Karen. I love the cutwork too. I wondered about the size of this band. Thes swaddling cloths bring back memories - when my first was born I ahd to take to hospital flannel swaddling cloths for him and calico ones for me! Really dark age stuff, nowadays!
i would love to be all wrapped up in one of these.
