Sailing away !
Rather an obscure title I hear you say but this piece includes torn map pages and painted bondaweb to represent water. Sues chosen stitches seed and French knots – so very Sue and the colour blue.
Seventh heaven for me using blue but I hadn’t taken into account how labour intensive both stitches are. Sadly my French knots often became colonial knots but having tried to undo wrong knots I just ploughed on – sorry Sue but I did try! Similar problems with seed stitch – I found stitches were increasing in size and often going in the same direction, having said that I just loved doing this for Sue. I added beads for a bit of ‘shin’ and ‘lift’.
