test drive ..... and go !

Yesterday I put my own stitching on the SUN aside

and put the Man's stitch-and-burn under the machine

for the last part that had to be done

with the black cotton thread.

Then, this morning, the sun was out !

Beautiful weather to do some burning outside !!!

First Man did a "test drive"

with paper and scissors

The next step was to put all the needed stuff outside

and start burning 

It took quite some time, but at the end of the day : 

... finished !!!!!

There is a lovely choice of tiny pieces cut out

ánd tiny pieces left in place.

The photo I took when the piece was lying on the couch

is the best !

It's so much fun to see how the original colours changed

by the randomly placed dyed "wonder under"

and the pieces of polyester chiffon.

I myself was sitting in the garden with a wooden tray

stitching the bits and pieces of the SUN together

... with every now and then 

some visitors on the water
