whispering .....

In May Jude Hill started a new "Whispering"

It's a beautiful concept :

she picks a subject for possible new work and

lets you in on all her thoughts, try outs

and techniques so that you can enjoy seeing how she works

and use it in your own work

as you are trying to work along with this 

"Master in Cloth and Stitch"

that Jude is.
Whispering in May is called
Sun, Moon, Stars

As an appetizer I started in April with a star

which now looks like this.

After some serious thoughts about the sun/moon/stars subject

and the possibilities for the composition and background,

Jude showed how to discharge dark cloth, simply with bathroom cleaner,

to make moons and stars.

That was so much fun that I had to try that

and started a dark blue cloth.

Jude is known for her "What-iffing"

so I asked myself (like her)

"What if the moon was a square ?"

I had some whitish inchies nine patches that I used

some time ago to make Biscornu's,

(the funny shaped pincushions Eva makes)

But the square didn't last long : SHE must be round I think

So here is my moon : round again

Just as I nearly finished this post yesterday Blogger went "dead"
nothing to post, nothing to comment at friends' blogs
ánd worst of all :
I thought I had to start aaaaaalllll over again with this one !
So I was very happy when I realized 10 minutes ago
that not all had gone lost !
pfffffft
