TAST - feather stitch


I did this piece a while ago - far too busy at work to find any playtime again this week. I do like feather stitch. I used a metallic to feather stitch on the torn strips of organza for kelp, and some rayon stuff for the yellow bushy thing in the middle.
Not much of an effort, and certainly not recent, but I find it so depressing to see another week go by and realise I have barely picked up a needle, that I thought I had to find something in the stash to remind me of the times when I had all day to stitch! Roll on retirement!
I am going to make a concerted effort to finish pieceing the tesselating quilt this weekend. And I want to paint up some cheesecloth to do some embellisher play. If I manage to achieve that much I will be happy, before Monday rolls around again. Although I am on standby to go into work this weekend if necessary - dreading the sound of the mobile ringing as it will only mean one thing.
