I have been reading Janet Edmonds' book Three Dimensional Embroidery, and have been inspired to create a vessel. I want to use the fabrics I dyed and "collage" pieces together to make a base fabric with an autumnal feel, before making it 3D.
One of the many things I learnt on the C&G course was to make samples.
So using calico, I stitched pleats all round and then stitched piping cord in for support.
I am really quite pleased with the outcome.
I won't get round to doing the autumn one yet as I want to make a book, as another entry for the Village Show.
