Carol brought along a selection of work produced on various workshops she had taken.The first was a Nikki Parmenter one 'Plastic Entrapment'.They had been given a choice of image ,Carol chose the butterfly .it was drawn onto the plastic with a sharpie pen and then various pieces were trapped by free machining .It is very attractive and we wonder if it might be durable enough to sit outside?
Carol signed up for the first run of Stitch Club.She has a book of meticulous notes detailing every workshop they gave.She admitted she could not keep up and do every one but has the notes should she wish to go back to them.The one she did below was stitching on leaves ,some questioned why
would you want to !
This was one run by Debby for Bristol Stitchers and involved a background of painted Bondaweb with a small appliqued lace butterfly with fly stitch .
At the same workshop they experimented with foiling on fabric, cutting out shapes and using embroidery to foil over .They give some lovely effects.
