Went to another one of Sarah's Drawn Threads Workshops the other Saturday with my sister. It was great to dedicate a whole day to sewing. We both took our Singer Featherweights.
I decided to make a garden picture so had a look through my many gardening books for ideas. My starting point was some fabric that looked like York paving and a lovely rose print.
Got the inspiration from this photo
Ended up with this.
It looks better from a distance but below is a close up so that you can see how I did it. The clouds are made of pure un-spun wool scrounged from Becky the Weaver, tucked under a fine fabric. Thanks Becky.
My sister did an cute owl but he is still under construction.
We had a lovely day with Sarah, she made us very welcome.
Cheers
Sharon
