Saturday 16th October Beyond Boundaries - Elise Stewart

This workshop was to create a modern day sampler either by machine or hand OR a combination of both.

These are 2 images of Elise's work that she used to promote the day.

    

These are Elise's words about the day.

'The photos show stitching down threads by machine and hand, trying out machine patterned stitches, adding fabric, beads and other embellishments, then adding "filler" stitches. Jan's table stand was much admired and there was quite a debate about equipment.   I thought it was lovely that people put their own spin on it - I gave them an outline of each stage and then they went with what they liked. As you can see from the final picture they were all quite different but all very lovely and I am looking forward to seeing them when finished. '

Thank you Elise
