So, thinking ahead, these are all going to be mounted on some nice fabric - you can start looking around for some posh moire silk or small Gustavian Swedish check in grey and white or beige and white. I am sure you will surprise me with even more beautiful ideas than I can imagine! You will need a piece of 16 inches or 40cm square. We shall work this project through in paper and then it will be a snip for you to make a similar stitched equivalent. In fact this is exactly what used to happen in the Lancastrian Schools (named after the Quaker educationalist Joseph Lancaster) in England. Girls first stitched paper, and when they could prove their proficiency they were rewarded by being given fabric to stitch - so do feel you are part of this tradition.
Thanks for posting the third part. And so timely, too. Reminds me that I keep telling my friend that we have to give this a try as one of our get-together projects. Perhaps she will have the time next week...
ReplyDeleteJust wondering if there will be an instruction sheet that we can print off? It would be of great help rather than try to read the instructions from the computer. From a grateful fan==Bonnie
