Looks far more dramatic here than it is - just
experimenting...
... with seams I collected when cutting up old
clothing...
... and some raw silk filling from an old coverlet
I don´t use any more...
So, it´s already almost time to say bye-bye to
April - that one went quick (as most of them do)...

I love the way you can see both beauty and potential in something as mundane as old seams. The used and worn transform into coherent, serene, and lovely works of art in your hands.
a history in the history of wearing these
I can't say it any better than jenclair - serene is just the right word. And magical.
love the seams all together like that, simply stunning xx
Potential everywhere...
Thank you... - it does look quite good, considering the little effort it took... - no seam stress here for the seamstress (funny word, if you come to think about it...)
love love them and, as always, your hand with the pale palette is so inspiring...
just don't start with the selvedges! seen too many of those kind of creations.
Thank you, Dee - for the compliment + for the warning... ;)
I love that you see the potential in the unusual :o) and always make a beautiful piece from the "bits"
Have a good week
Carolyn
Thank you, Carolyn... + the same to you...!!

of course.
Now thereis a reason to collect them too.
My house is exploding.
One more seam and it will burst its.
Throw out something else - seams are life-lines... ;)
