Workshop cloths Report #2

I've been stitching away in Jude's cloth to cloth workshop and here's where my 2 cloths are now.  In the top one, I cut the circle from the background, rotated it, then replaced it inlay fashion. In the bottom piece, the blue birds shapes were cut into the pine needle cloth, exposing the blue fabric underneath.  It's fun to work this way; dynamic and ever challenging in the design sense.  I'm a little behind in the lessons because there is so much to explore and it's very satisfying to do so.

Workshop cloths

This is the first woven cloth I made for Jude's cloth to cloth workshop.  It's made out of dear old scraps from various projects.  Some hand dyed silk.  No quilting yet.   It's nice to handle...very light

This one has lots of flannel in it so it's a bit heavier.  What fun it is to make them. Each is 12" square just about.

I can't resist adding this photo.  Very slowly and carefully the old department of Public Health building is being torn down.  They spray it with enormous quantities of water, I suppose to keep the dust down.  This project has been going on for months.  This was yesterday's view which I found beautiful.  More lovely than the building itself ever was.
