| One of my newest projects that I've been working on are these white linen pieces that are hand stitched with black perle cotton 8 thread. The center piece is hand drawn with a Pitt Pen on rolling papers. Yes, you heard it right, rolling papers. The kind you roll your own with. They are very small and fragile. Mistyfuse is on the backs of the rolling paper and fused to the white linen. The white linen is also fused with Mistyfuse to wool blended felt for easier hand sewing. They are around 5x5 |
| Tulip with circles |
| House with tulip and landscape. I love how the image sort of becomes part of the white linen, and it is hard to tell how it was drawn. Gotta love that! |
| It takes a village. Yes, I do make mistakes, and this is a perfect example. The top portion looks a little weird, only because I ripped out the very complicated sky that I created, and did something simple. My goal is to have some of the stitches hit the edges of the rolling paper. I am pretty happy with how the group has turned out so far. I may mount them on watercolor paper and put in plastic sleeves. This has been a really fun project |
