Cover Page

This is a continuation of the page trying different techniques with the tissue paper.
You last saw this page when I was waiting for it to dry.  The right panel is layers of tissue, then stitched.  The edge has blanket stitch lace, and then the page has been embellished with french knots, bullion and web stitches.

It's then been attached to the book as a cover sheet.  My next task, is to make cover pages for all the completed pages, using the different methods we've tried.

Saturday Progress

 I can honestly say, I am having fun with this course.  It doesn't matter how tired I am, I can pick this up and spend a delightful couple of hours stitching away.
 I have just carried on working around the piece from where I finished yesterday.  The web stitches are such a delight to work.
This is the area I need to continue with today.  The ironing will have to come first, but it will be me some time to think about what I am going to do.
