A new start ...

Well this is really all new to me but here we go....

I have recently re found my love of stitching and decided I would like to share my sewn adventures and a little of the rest of my life.

I love all types of stitching but to me , it has to be an art form so kits are not my passion, I prefer to design as I go, seeing how the piece works out as it grows.

To start I will just share a couple of recent pieces I have completed. 

Firstly a bargello case I made for a dear friend.
 It was a lovely piece to do .

Secondly a piece of free hand embroidery I have done for my sister , she will be 40 soon. I do hope she likes it. 

I tend to draw straight onto my fabric & then stitch. Sometimes I sketch first on paper but then pen I use soon fades away so a mistake is not too bad.
