It's definitely finished this time....!

So, here is the Pear collage again! This time it is definitely finished! I fixed the centre top section that was annoying me and am so much happier with it now!

Collage, Detail

I'm so completely enamoured with this technique that I've started the background for the next one already! Again, this is on stretched canvas which I'm finding to be a perfect substrate; I've had this circular canvas sitting around for a while now............


New Collage, WIP

Here is this gorgeous piece of Nuno Felt! I'm enjoying stitching into it and because of it's thickness and texture and double sided-ness I can stitch different embroidery on front and back! I'm not planning at all - just going with the flow...............the best sort of art!

Thanks for your comment on my felt.I'm working on a similar piece at the moment. I think we share a love of varied techniques. Your collage and felt look to be great fun.

Thanks for visiting Jackie! I want to spend a bit more time looking at your varied techniques on your blog too!
I'm finding all this experimenting to be great fun and very freeing!

Picked up your blog from mine - we could spend a long weekend talking 24 hrs a day and probably still not run out of things to talk about. I hate being typecast and don't fit into anyone's boxes so if people ever ask me what I do I say I'm a generalist - I know a little about a lot - magpie mind and its like that with crafts too. I love trying something new.

Joei,
What a great idea...! That would look a bit like the gorgeous flowers you are working on over at your blog?!

Jayne,
Great to meet another puddleducker (generalist- I like that!) I feel like I can never learn enough new skills...........!
Have fun with your new blog!
