a small amount of embroidery

Here is how the 'collage' looks now. it's been added to slightly since last time. Remember I said that it probably wouldn't inform my work? Well I have suprised myself because as you will soon see a small part of it has definitely sparked something. This is the only embroidery I have managed this week. I picked up a needle for the first time in over a week yesterday. Don't ask me what it is or what it's going to be, I don't know,

but can you see the similarity? I actually have quite an urge to play with this idea on paper a little more. Yesterday I bought art supplies for the first time in I don't know how long so you may yet get more paperwork showing up on here.

Although I haven't done any sewing this week I still have a massive stash to list online so I have been spending some time doing that. These are a few of the things newly listed over here at the new shop on Big Cartel.

and these are newly listed in my etsy shop. I am limited to five items on Big Cartel, (because i'm a cheapskate and that's the free plan) so will continue to use both 'venues' for now.

The slow pace of the past week is suiting me at the moment. There was a definite need to step back for a while, try new things, less demanding, relaxing things. So I think this coming week will be spent the same way, a little art work, a little sitting with pencil and paper, maybe a tiny amount of stitch. Lady of leisure? maybe.....
