Work in progress ^__^

Made using just fabric from my stash. Mix of quilting cottons, japanese fabrics and pillowcases and sheets I've picked up from charity shops for the blocks - it worked out to be about 50/50 scraps/yardage, the sashing is good old Lincraft Homespun.

mixed media collage works, in acrylic. I have been burning it up lately, and these are stages of works in progress. eventually i want to make time lapse gifs.

A very modest start...

I've been holding onto to my bundle of Tanya Whelan's "Darla" collection, waiting for the right project, and now I've found it.

Finished up with Nelson's head today. I might have to end up changing out that white glass on Bully's forehead, it just is so much darker than the rest.

just a taste... we are scanning these so they will be higher quality.

I like to pretend that I am artistic, but the truth is I can't draw to save my life.

Pattern found here.

Hand dyed calico drying in the sun.

I don't know if this is the technical way to be doing the stem stitch, but I like the way this looks so I really don't care. ;)

My new project is to make a mixed media piece based on the prison door of Stafford Gaol which Emma Sproson describes in her memoires.

She speaks in some detail about the marks and messages scratched onto its surface.

The base of the piece is calico, on to which I have hand stitched further pieces of calico and linen.

I am now adding another layer of hand stitching as well as areas of PVA. I have scratched marks into the surface of the PVA and when this layer is dry I hope to add further layers of acrylic modelling paste, emulsion paint and then a top layer of acrylic paint ( and anything else which comes to hand!).

I hope that the final impression is that of a dark, multi-layered piece.

It measures about 3 foot by 4 foot at the moment, but it could end up much larger.

As I knitted with such large needles, the resulting piece is very stretchy.

Here I show some samples of the lining material ( left) and samples of the fabric and wool I will be weaving through the knitting.

The day after the Sewing for Pleasure show. My desk.

I bought several exciting items, some of which I used today. I also tidied up my samples and used them to make cards.
