Still a bit weak, but I'm back !
Flu is such a silly illness
(most of the time)
but it can knock you right of your socks
Now it's over, so :
time to continue Boro
Ha, só many pieces have already been replaced,
which was to be expected, of course !
But the pieces at the bottom of the back I was sure about
are now being "glued" to the fabric of the jacket
(noooo, no real glue of course, but Jude's "glue-stitch" )
Raw edge or needle-turned, just as it goes
and then other stitches follow ...
Mmmmm, I love how the "pattern continues"
from one piece of fabric to the next
The shibori : I purchaged from Glennis Dolce,
who brought it with her from Japan,
(ouch ..... and I cut right into it ...)
the piece that it connects is from an old cushion cover
I already cut into before : for this
The eyes I found in the "Blaudruck" fabric are finished now
and there will be a bit of colour in the flowers
Even a lot more colour on the top ánd the front of the jacket
(is my plan)
I'm cheering you on from the side-lines, Els! Got my fabrics sorted, now need to start cutting and tacking. How exciting!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenGlad you have shaken off the bug - yes, it is silly but it also does knock you for six. Take care, and a Happy Easter to you and yours. Lxxx

So glad to hear you are feeling better, Els!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThere is so much depth in the tones and patterns you are using...love how the wave moves across the surface!
Can't wait to see the finished piece!
