I think that all the sewing has caught up with me a little today – I certainly wasn’t as productive as I had hoped I would be. I added a little more colour to the top of the flower spathe – but that was it really. It is nice to see a little bit of colour – but the areas were small and tricky to sew – especially as the stitch direction also alters.
The next two days are spent working at home and I hope to complete the leaf and a little more of the flower. Two consecutive days working from home is a little worrying as I am new to this technique – so if anything goes wrong on day 1, I will have a whole day to wait before speaking to my tutor. Fingers crossed. xxx
Happy sewing everyone.
Looking good – the shading must be working as your flower has depth x
Thank you – I haven’t really noticed myself as I am always working on a cm at a time.
I think it is coming together well. When you’re working on your own, you will learn to recognise when you need to rest, because it is very concentrated, but also, you will find that there will be periods when you can see everything that needs to be done, and it all seems surprisingly easy. It’s mildly disconcerting, because it all seems so difficult when you sit down, but thoroughly delightful at the same time!
Have fun!
Couldn’t agree more – I am gaining in confidence as I continue.
I think it looks amazing!
Thank you – I can see an end to it now!
