Sharing how I am turning individual slow stitch, embroidered and fabric collaged panels into a larger wall hanging or panel featuring vintage and reclaimed textiles and fabrics, together with a range of laces and embellishments like buttons and Suffolk puffs or yo-yos.

I discuss my approach to colour coordinating my fabrics and transitioning the colours and tones down the piece. I also discuss the use of vertical and horizontal elements, as well as how I will do some initial invisible or basting stitches to be able to remove the pesky pins that always manage to poke my fingers!

I hope you enjoy hearing about my emerging piece: Down the garden path of my mind’s eye
