Diversity.


Patricia had brought along some different examples of stitch to consider.The first was a piece bought from someone selling on the street.It was the exuberance and energy of the stitching that appealed.
Next were bags bought while on a trip to India,they show skill and creativity.First the embroidery of the fabric,the added decorative touches and finally the construction to make usable artefacts.All for a few pence!



Sue was also interested in surface stitch but more for how different they look when held to the light.

                                               And this fine fellow,reminder of times past.
