I’m taking part in the 100 Day Project , it officially finished on 10th of July, but I am still going. I had a bit of a break for a couple of months, and I must admit it is very easy to get out of the habit of stitching everyday.
I exchanged fabric with 9 other members of a Facebook group I belong to, and we are using each others pieces in our 100 Day Projects.… Read the rest

Now the nights are drawing in and the leaves are beginning to turn my mind turns once more to collaboration.
It’s been more than 2 months since the last one finished, and I am only now getting round to blogging it. Summer got in the way, I guess.
Myself and 9 other members of a textile group on Facebook took turns to contribute to some felt covered pebble* shapes that were kindly made by a member of the group.… Read the rest

I’m taking part in the 100 Day Project , but I’m doing it in my own time, thank you very much, I never said it was 100 CONSECUTIVE days, did I? Just as well I didn’t because I took a good few days off during the most recent phase. I’ve had a touch of RSI (repetitive sewing injury) in my hand, and decided to give it a rest.… Read the rest

I’ve been taking part in another collaborative project with 9 other members of a Facebook textile group, this time we took it in turns to contribute to 10 5 inch embroidery hoops. 
Some of the previous projects fitted into a large letter sized envelope and this kept the postage costs to a minimum. However the hoops needed to go in a small parcel, so I suggested that to make the most of that we should make them 3 dimensional.… Read the rest

So soon, another phase of my 100 Day Project is completed. You can read about the previous ones here
I exchanged fabric with 9 other members of a Facebook group I belong to, and we are using each others pieces in our 100 Day Projects. The most recent piece I used came from Jacquie Chalmers.

For this section of my 100 days I used a piece of fabric I received from Sue Justjems in an exchange.
