I’ve completed another jewellery pouch. I really love this one.
Well I loved the previous one too!


I used the sticky fabri solvy sheet again.
It took just a couple of hours plus a little sewing.
And now I have 2.
There is a third on it’s way but meanwhile I have to share my completed, mounted, first piece from the Zakka book. The book that got me hooked.

After much contemplation about what size of mount/canvas frame I was going to use in this post here, I went with the larger frame but bought a 12mm thick canvas instead of the 36mm deep canvas I had planned.
I also found out that buying a cheap stretched canvas that was already printed with some naf image was cheaper than buyer a plain ‘artist’s’ canvas.
I like the way the stitching just curls around the edge.
Next time I will plan more and think about pattern placement and how I am going to mount it, before I start. But this one was rather a spontaneous make that I happened on liking very much.
Off to Dewsbury this weekend for Ali’s sewer’s meet up #sewdowndewsbury. I’ll be on the look out for some fine linen.
Love, Lucie xx
All beautiful embroidery – the red tree is still my favourite!
Have a great time ‘down Dewsbury’ – at least you won’t be on your own this weekend 😉

Your embroidery is just so neat! Don’t be looking too close at my name badge I’ve made – it’s only running stitch and I had to undo a few bits and start again. And I can see why you couldn’t do it on the train. I’m struggling sat at a table! But reading on one of your other post about linen promoted me to dig out a scrap i had, so thanks for the tip. 😀

Lovely! I’ve just made some drawstring bags to put all my chargers and cables in when I’m travelling. But maybe next time I will have to consider adding some embroidery 🙂

Your mounted embroidery looks good. I think you made the right choice there! And I love your latest pouch, Especially love the symmetry of it. Only two hours! It would take me a week. You are so gifted.
