The group is finishing the blackwork heart pieces. Here are three of them.
I love how they individually chose to finish them. This one has a stick with fabric balls at the end.
This one has lace added.
This one has a sleeve on the back.
The next project is a little snap purse with flowers. They will each design their own purses, so first we needed to learn some stitches. I'm sorry I didn't take pictures of their practice pieces. We made flowers with organdy ribbon and spider web roses with various types of threads. Next time we will practice making leaves, then the designing will begin!
These little "8" shaped cookies look like chocolate, but they are made with tea! Delicious!
Oh gosh! The hearts look amazing! And the purses sound really exciting ...... I can't wait to see what they make! I can almost smell those biscuits...... they do look tasty! Barbara x
Those embroidered hearts are so beautiful. You must be very proud of your students friends :) I've been wishing for a long time to try my hands on blackwork... maybe this year ?? Hmmmm, those "8" cookies look delicious !
Your students are hardworking and patient - blackwork is time consuming and can strain the eyes. The result is great and as they have finished each in their own way they become very personal. I'm looking forward to the report on your purse making.
