Choice made

Back with the fabric books!

So which one did I choose to work on first?  (see Choices Choices)

This one: the cream silk noil concertina book.  When folded up the book is 8x9.5cms.

Using the bits and pieces I showed you in the Choices post I made little collages on each page.  I used Mistyfuse to bond the pieces to the fabric.




Now they are ready to stitch.

I've used cross stitch, seed stitch, running stitch and fly stitch.



3 pages down.  13 to go!

Looking and Listening

It's almost 6 months since I wrote about the various social media that I follow, so I thought I would do an update.  Plus a random photo!

I thought this might be a good time to recommend some things I follow.

Celebrations

What a week it's been!  I'm going to work backwards from today!

Today is 40 years to the day (and 40 years to the date tomorrow) that Roger and I got married.


On Tuesday we all celebrated Andy & Naomi's 14th Wedding Anniversary.  Where does the time go?

And of course last Saturday we celebrated the coronation of King Charles III.  I watched it all on the television.  Leading up to the day I watched YouTube videos of the rehearsals.

Finally here are my planner pages for this past week.  I don't usually buy bright colour stickers so I had to make my own which were actually a bit bigger that they should have been.

I hope you have had an excellent week.
