This piece is called 'Meditation 1' - the buzz word these days seems to be 'slow stitching' or meditation through stitch - I just know that I thoroughly enjoyed making this piece and I didn't know what to call it.
It's hung on an old reel. A friend threw out some pieces of linen (she had unpicked a jacket with the thought of doing something with it but never got around to do anything!)
At our Qld Quilters' Art Quilt group we have a bin of fabric that's been donated & so the linen jacket pieces ended up there. I took them home not really knowing what I would do.
I cut (free-hand) strips from the pieces and started stitching randomly, adding buttons occasionally.
This first one is hanging in my home. It was a really delightful experience and I've produced 2 more from this same jacket.
