How lovely! Love it. Thank you for sharing this and your thoughts. So sorry about your kitty. I miss my Max and Jellybean very much, they were great company. Look forward to your next video.

It's gorgeous Emma. On a piece I did at a workshop I had something similar as I had cut fabric into tiny pieces and free motion stitched them down so it became one piece. I wanted to create watering holes (similar to what Aboriginal artists use in their paintings) so I poked small holes into the piece where I wanted them and pushed some blue chiffon through from the back. Fiddled around with the chiffon until it roughly formed a watering hole shape and then stitched it down. I love that piece. Have a great week Emma. Happy creating.

that sounds beautiful and quite a challenge to create! Free stitching is just so versatile isn't it, and fabrics so full of possibilities to express what we want to!

Beautiful texture and such gorgeous colours Emma. I like the thought of a vertical piece simply framed with the raw edges showing. However, the detail is in focus when you use the apertures. Can’t wait to see what you decide. Thank you for the inspiration. 😊

thanks Anne, the detail really shows when we frame it doesn't it. It's amazing what can come from scraps! xx

Such a gorgeous splash of colour! My first thought looking through the hole reminded me of those greetings card blanks with apertures and I could see some of the piece mounted in this way. Otherwise I could see the whole piece framed in landscape on a board without glass and with the rough edges showing - if that makes sense! It feels very tactile. Looking forward to seeing how you decide to finish this ♥

great ideas thanks Shirley, love the idea of a simple board (and the no glass bit!). I often think we should make art for touching, gives art another dimension. 😍

A few thoughts. Cut vertically a bracelet, or a cuff for a Jean jacket. Cut into circle and mounted on fabric or paper for a small wall hanging.

oo I like your ideas Jodeen, especially a cuff for a jacket, that's cool! xx

After spending time admiring and stroking the piece I would think about how I could turn it into something I could look at regularly, such as the mug warmer you showed, or a bracelet, as has already been suggested

Admiring and stroking one's work, what a great idea Christine! Love that as a concept, it doesn't have to be anything really I guess! xx

I think brooches would be lovely, but as you say it’s beautiful on its own, I think I’d want to keep it for a while, and just look at it, and stroke it now and then lol 😊thank you for sharing Emma, whatever you do will be beautiful xx ❤

I must admit I really love it just as it is with edges left as they are. My thought was a pair of bracelets i.e. each bracelet half the size of the strip. Or if there is enough construct a little pin box with a lid-that would be really sweet 🙂

I so love this - unusual. Always love texture! I probably have hundreds of tree bark pictures; none with snow ( “problem” with living in lower elevations).😊 The background textures make the moon and tree pop.

I have never seen an embellish machine before - I loved watching you, I will definitely research and thinks I might like to play too. Thank you so much for sharing

@StitchandCreate 11 күн бұрын

it's my pleasure, an embellishing machine is a wonderful tool! They come with different numbers of needles and prices, so look around. Mine is a Babylock with 12 needles, expensive but great. You may get them 2nd hand. good luck!🙂

@@StitchandCreate Years ago at a craft fair I bought a kit to do something sort of similar. It had a long piece of washaway and some roving and then threads etc. I laid out half of the washaway covered it evenly with the different colours of roving (shades of blue) and then added the threads etc. I also added some other things frommy stash. Covered it with morewasaway then free motioned stitchingall over it. Washed it to get rid of the wash away and had a beautiful scarf. I use it as a runner on my dressing table and it always brings me joy and pleasure to see it.

I love the texture on the tree - it works! I really like the simplicity and how the background isn't lost - the colour and texture is fab ♥ So sorry to hear about your cat passing, it sounds as though she lived life to the full and left many happy memories with you. Sending love and healing energy xx
