Monday

Been out for walks - out bush with Geraldine - (breeder of our Jack Russell's) as she is up in Kal visiting and friends with our dogs. Walking 5kms each time over the last few days my poor legs are feeling it as I donot normally walk that far and at the pace Geraldine sets. Blaze gets half way around and attempts to fine the shortest route home through the bush.

Sunday morning managed to get to do some off my embellisher course. Yes! Was going great guns when my embellisher died. Not very impressed as I still had lots to do! But Fred (local sewing machine repairer) has looked at it and there is a problem with the foot control. He has lent me another foot control until mine is repaired so I am back in business. Lovely man.

Sari fabric embellished into felt Hard work in some places to convinve the fabric to stay in place

Bits and pieces cut and added to felt with organza over the top to hold everything in place. Then needs some embroidery on the top.

Varigated Adore nylon embellished into felt then organza embellished over the top. Used as a base to do the ATC below. Time consuming but a great result.

Hi Annie, Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog... it's nice to know you've been visiting! And it's great to see some of what you've been up to with the embellisher! I might have to invest in one of these!
