We are working through the alphabet A-Z. First is her choice and second is the community choice.
K3N chose Feather but I did not. I chose Fish, Five Fantastic/Fabulous ones.
I chose a bluish background cotton fabric and invisible stitched it to my thin white foundation layer.
I chose fabrics for my Fish from bright cotton scraps. I pinned them in place and used a running stitch to secure them to the background.
I then decorated them in bright colors and stitch patterns. French Knots and running stitch in a variety of patterns.
I then used green thread to create plants in the water from the bottom and water pattern along the top of the piece in blue embroidery thread. I left space on the left for the eventual binding the piece into a book.
I think I got carried away with the stitching. Decompressing from a very busy week.
