Always needing to keep my hands busy, I have been doing a lot of hand stitching. I have collected many different variegated threads, pearls and flosses that I particularly enjoy working with. Variegated adds interest to the texturing. I brought Sue Spargo's collection of Wonderfil #8 Perle cotton into StitchCraft this year and love it!
I taught a Gelli Printing class this past week in the shop. It was a fun morning of play! While making samples I found myself stitching one of them. Now covered in seed stitches, I am trying to decide what to do with it. Do I finish it as a little piece or add it to something larger. I have made many small fiber and stitch collages lately and they are starting to stack up. I took a class with Liz Kettle at Quilt Market in May and she mounts them individually and sells them as small pieces of art.
How would you finish this?
