This was completed on the embellisher machine , I am really starting to enjoy working with it. I need to become a little more adventurous, but am happy. Have a lot more stitching to do to both pieces, but I am growing a nice little pile of pieces.
Nothing too exciting to look at, but it is work in progress. On Sunday, the traders Winefrid Cottage came and needless to say I could not resist parting with some of my hard earned cash.
A few handstitching threads, some quilting wool and a machine bobbin ring holder. I also bought a book.
Its a lovely book, but what really caught my eye was this:-
Thought this would make a good project for me over the summer holidays, the practise at dying all those different colours would be good for me, and then I can hang the quilt in my new classroom in September. The whole school is moving to a new building and a new site.......but that's another story!!! You probably understand why I am a bit busy. Just to let you know, if you live within travelling distance of Urchfont in Wiltshire, it is the Textile Exhibitions weekend next sunday, look here for details
