random photos...


This was what was left afterI'd been doing some printing. I decided to scribble in the paint and take a few photos to remind me what it had looked like. I may have a shot at manupulating this on the computer. One of these days!




This was an old stitched piece that was lurking around. I keep picking it up to see if I can use it but the answer is always no. I can never find the right location for it. The background fabric is one of my recent makes . It is really quite big for me but as yet is still hanging on my pinboard awaiting inspiration. I hope it comes soon as I'd like to stitch a bigger piece.

on a roll...

finally found out how to post a few photos at a time....


















these were some of the ones I'd meant to post earlier...



















these all come from a piece that I was doing to fit a specific sized frame for a recent exhibition.




















this had quite a few bits added and subtracted!! That was a real pain trying to unpick some of the heavily machined areas. Not really recommended!! I'm not sure if I have a photo of the finished piece. I'll have a look later.
Bye for now.

Sorry!

This was supposed to be me catching up and posting quite a lot today but as usual things never go to plan!!
These two pictures, apart from taking ages to load which is really annoying me, are upside down or on the side and I'm not getting to access them to turn them. Obviously need to do a little bit of testing here and there to get things back to normal! Now I've just deleted one by mistake, grrrr!!! I'll load it another day, honest!
I was really trying to get rid of my "Happy Easter" so that it wasn't the first thing you saw when looking at my blog. It really makes it obvious if you've not been updating!!!
These two are from some of the many unframed pieces that I've been making for recent exhibitions. Hence the not being here!! In fact now that I look at them they look almost the same. Good grief!!
No,the first picture was actually one that got framed up. Yes the picture that's upside down! mmm!
You know how you talk about a bad hair day, well, I think I'm having on a bad blog day. Does that make it a BBD?
Maybe I need to go before I delete the whole thing!!
OR
Maybe I should just stick to flickr!!
Byeee!

Hope you had a good one !




Finally managing to upload more than one photo at a time. Thank goodness!!
Hope everyone had a good Easter and haven't eaten too many chocolate eggs!!
These photos were taken in my garden. The poor pink primroses had a bit of rain damage on them which was a shame. I have to confess that they are still in the box they came in from the garden centre, I must get them planted before they finish blooming!! Were does time go?
I'll try and get some stitching posted soon.

ah ha!

Just managed to do this! I'm fair pleased with myself :o) These are some of the new unframed pieces I've been working on. Just the usual fabric collages using silk, muslin, velvet and free machine embroidery.
That's it for now, byeee
:o)
