Last journal quilts of the year, October, November and December, stitched in a flurry due to pressures of work and stress due to aircraft noise.
October, experiments in curved paper piecing. Stitched while on an idyllic two days staying in Lulworth Cove at Botany Farmhouse. Wonderful hosts, terrific breakfasts, more textile than you could imagine would fit in to one house - as the owners say, not for minimalists!
Back
November, inspiration from an experimental piece by Christine Risley at an exhibition in Goldsmith’s College. Machine -stitched threads pulled long and loose on the top of stencilled hearts and chains, with accent of pins wrapped with red thread.
Detail
December, inside out for Christmas. Polyester wading on the outside with pinked, folded circles for trees. Surprisingly difficult to sew through all of that.
Merry Christmas all.
The art work with the hearts is just gorgeous....Merry Christmas to you 'StitchinScience'!
