Like minded ladies


I spent last Friday over in Brighouse with these lovely ladies at the studio of Anne Brooke 



Some pictures of Anne’s work







We were there to spend a day of mindful stitching the theme being Boro work.
 The Japanese art of repairing clothes by layering and stitching cloth upon cloth.


We each had a kit box to start us off.  
Some of the pieces were new and some old which we stitched onto a backing cloth.
Random stitching is used going in any direction to secure the pieces.


When it’s finished I will either frame it, make it into a purse or
attach it to the front of a hessian shopping bag.

Off to strip the wall of flower pictures in the bedroom now ready for the decorator tomorrow.
