I...Its always interesting to pull out UFO's. I've about 3 embroidery works in progress and one UFO from a few years ago that just needs that little bit more done to it before finishing and framing. Can't rush these things though and over the last 12 months I did manage to finish a few silk prints etc in between working on new things. I like your thinking on your projects and it is a wonderful feeling when you can look at the finished product and tick another off the list.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852926872695979225.post-67738916186404206812010-05-22T11:03:10.555+10:002010-05-22T11:03:10.555+10:00Thank you everyone for such positive and helpful c...Thank you everyone for such positive and helpful comments. Iceni, I do think a gold lining might look rather rich, and have not long purchased a rather old gold/slightly metallic fabric that I like. Perhaps an 'audition' is the order of the day later!!!<br />Yes, Jensters, I just decided to start commenting via this account........LOL.....<br />Radka, so pleased the book is proving to your liking. I found it very clear, with many steps photographed up close and personal, just what we need when trying to 'teach ourselves'.<br />Dian, it's been your enthusiasm for 'your' UFO's that got me looking again at some I have stored away, thank you so much. As a fellow embroiderer, I know you realize how different we see things when they are re-visited after a lull.<br />Thanks for all the encouragement ladies.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10206976005858712960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852926872695979225.post-68839397415198466412010-05-21T23:58:36.514+10:002010-05-21T23:58:36.514+10:00Hi Linda, can't help you with the bag, I am no...Hi Linda, can't help you with the bag, I am not into bags much. I love your applique, I think it would still make a lovely cushion, but a hanging will be nice too.<br />By the way, Luzine's book arrived today, I love it allready! It is so well laid out and clear. Thank you for pointing me in her direction!Radkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04407639057505104281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852926872695979225.post-88841302408101628462010-05-21T20:30:02.154+10:002010-05-21T20:30:02.154+10:00Hi Linda, good to finish off some of those ufos.
...Hi Linda, good to finish off some of those ufos.<br />I look forward to seeing what you create with these.

I think the applique would look nice as a wallhanging i still like the idea of a purse but im sure a bag would be just as nice....Hugs Jennie xJenstershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18082734018728041118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852926872695979225.post-72295524898411325392010-05-21T16:19:47.520+10:002010-05-21T16:19:47.520+10:00Hi Linda
I love the colours of your tulip embroide...Hi Linda<br />I love the colours of your tulip embroidery, so pretty and soft looking. I agree with you, it would look wonderful as a wall hanging or mounted into a frame, may be a box frame to give it depth?<br /><br />Gold cord would add a richness to your Dorothy Bag, Is it lined? I was just thinking a gold silk lining would also add richness to it.<br /><br />Linda, both pieces of work are lovely and I like the way you are rethinking how to use UFO's.<br />I'm looking forward to seeing how you finish these two pieces of work.<br /> <br />It's a very hot day already here in England. I'm going for a walk along the beach later this morning.<br />Hugs to you.Iceni UKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00537990630068118984noreply@blogger.com
