Continuing the leather and lace thing, this mottled suede with brown bloblets and spatters ( accidental, I think) is very inspiring in combination with cut-outs and stitch. Showing is one 5cm sq piece, with large stitches in #8 perle are 2cm approx; other stitches are tiny seed and french knots. I am very pleased with this small work and am, bravely or madly, seriously contemplating a very large piece of about the 1.2 to 2m kind of dimension …. at least 10 recorded books worth, imho.
The whole work should be showing soon since it is likely to be in a local fine craft gallery within the month.
