A Stitch in Time
Hi again. Firstly I want to say a big Thank-You to all of you for the kind wishes left on my blog. My Wrist/Hand is improving but I still have a good bit to go yet. Anyway, after looking at Hels Sheridan's blog and loving what I saw there I thought I'd give her Sunday challenge a bash. Its the first time I have done anything like it as it was on a canvas ( my choice ), but it was good fun and really messy. The project could be called My Life as I qualified as tailoress/designer way back in 1957 so most of my canvas is what I loved for years until I found card-making. I've used lots of elements that I never considered before. The stamps are from Creative Expressions ( Vintage Sewing ) by Sam Poole and I hope you like my finished canvas. Maybe I this will inspire you to have a go at something different. Thanks for looking and all your comments are so appreciated. Hugs Rita xxxx Sorry about the quality of the pictures .
