This week I have been thinking, preparing, designing, more thinking, and a bit of sampling.
I have mentioned the working title of the piece I am thinking about in earlier posts.
Bluebells and Blossoms
Will it be a quilt, or an embroidery? I still don't know.
This planning stage is always what takes me the longest time.
I have tray dyed some fabric which I think will make the background to the piece. I think I will dye some darker browns and greens this week.
I love how unpredictable this way of dyeing is. The results can be very dramatic.
I am starting to think about the background and how I will piece the sections.
When I have a few more blocks constructed I will have a play on my design wall to create the background for the appliqué and embroidery.
Happy Bank Holiday
