I started working on my bundles. Running stitch and french knots, two of my favourite stitches. The background cloth is silk (Love, love, love it!) and the coloured pieces are tulle, organza and handpainted scrim. The thread I used is a black cotton thread. Each bundle is 20 cm or 8 inches and the finished size of the whole piece is going to be about 30x40 cm or 12x16 inches.
Take it further!

A good Idea and you can be happy you know what to do!
Great beginnings. When I looked at the drawings, I thought of torches but now they are coming into fruition I am thinking of strong towering turrets of a castle
I send you a bundle of admiration!
I love those bundles Annica. Today I've given you a "You Make my Day Award" because that is what you do with your beautiful artwork and inspirational blog.
