Carry on landscaping!

This is a pair of panels (the fabric covering the mount is the same) experimenting with different stitches . The panel on the left uses variations of darning and that on right mostly variations on crewel stitches.



Close up of the darning panel. The ground fabric for the square piece is natural linen coloured with water colour dyes. The round piece is worked on polyester net curtaining.


Close up of the experimental crewel panel. The large square background is transfer dyed polyester. The two square pieces are worked on dyed natural linen using darker tones of colours taken from the backing piece.
