creating surfaces to embellish

Well we're in a fine mess aren't we? but somehow I find all the uncertainty exciting, interesting and very, very fascinating. Don't want to say anthing else about the election really except that I did my all night marathon and for that reason am definitely out of sorts today. The day seems upside down, inside out, I don't know if it's time too blog or time to eat. The headache has diminished thankfully but the head still feels heavy, congested. During the day yesterday, at a normal more human hour I worked with my pin tuck foot again. I created two new surfaces, this top one and a brighter one at the bottom of these pictures. These have both been added to with hand stitch, the top one has been damp stretched, the bottom one isn't quite finished yet. These pieces will probably morph into purses, almost definitely actually and hopefully before the weekend is out.

The other two smaller patchwork pieces you can see here will find their way into books. Today I seem to be surrounded by finished pieces, little things, all is not lost then on an all night election/stitching marathon! I haven't shown you all of them here, far too many but definitely next time! I am really delighted to say that one of my little patchwork and embroidery books has gone off to a new home, the other one is still available here and will be joined by smaller ones soon!
I hope you have a lovely weekend. x
