Stage one:

Being a little weary of playing with fabric and feeling that it's been 'forever' since I played with my Xpression, I thought I'd try my hand at constructing the appliqued landscape in wool

I haven't got too far with this afternoon's effort: I drew the cartoon onto heavy duty WSS backed with a tear away stabiliser (to stop the WSS 'grabbing ' on the machine bed.)

Once again,this is another case of "What if.......why not!"

If the weather stays wet and dreary again tomorrow I should get at least the cartoon blocked in in colour.

If it turns fine........the garden,and very fast growing weeds and succulents are demanding to be removed.
