A Slight Setback and an experiment May 30th, 2007

The setback, I have lost/misplaced the cricket bat, I have not doubt that it will turn up but there is no knowing when…I started looking for it but decided that it would be quicker to make another one…At least time I gave some thought to how I was going to attach it to the quilt and glued wires onto the back held on by the red thread wrapped around the handle and a piece if fabric.

My experiment was to use the technique for making Stumpwork Hands to make a boy…I twisted the wire into a rough body shape, wrapped it with threads and painted hair, face a cloths, I don’t know wether I will use him or not but although somewhat flat he is kinda cute.

I have also started to embroider the fence but the camera batteries went flat before I photographed it…below is a photo of the fence that I am representing.
