I designed a print based on Hundertwasser's Kunst Haus which I printed on stretch fabric and made into a t-shirt dress. This needed a belt to shape it, so I free machine embroidered a belt to go with it. I had to leave the piece to be marked, so no pictures yet, but here's some machine embroidery samples I did for my sketchbook:
 |
| Sample in the style of Lorraine Roy - I cut up hundreds of pieces of fabric and trapped them between tulle, which I then embroidered over and appliqued and stitched on top. |

| Close up of sample |
 |
| Free machine embroidery on coloured fabrics layered up in the style of Pat Langford |
 |
| Close up of tree which is made up purely of stitches and no pink fabric underneath. |

Hopefully I'll soon have pictures of the final piece to post.
Looking forward to the bank holiday weekend where I can recover from all this stitching and experiment further with resin.
I'm also attending a class with Val at Snazzy scrapbook and stamping, which I can't wait for:
