I've continued to work on the "catcher" cloth (bag) over christmas and am pleased... and a little surprised by... where that took me. The front panel is done, all hand stitched, and uses only reclaimed cloth. Now I just need to complete the body construction and add straps. I love that this piece has no straight lines and is so rough and ready.
Thank you both. I liked the light shinning through and was thinking about making some kind of curtain with a border that was worked like this. I was happy with the roughness of the stitching... which is really very me... since I have no training in any of this. I just love to explore and experiment.
Hi Jacky, Nice to meet you! Thanks for your kind comments. I love *your* work also. I am adding a link to your blog from here, and you can expect to hear from me in the near future. :)
Life. Design. Inspiration.

I'm a full-time landscape manager, living in southern Costa Rica, with a passion for design, handmade textiles, nature and the coast that surrounds me. Here, I offer you fragments of ideas, inspiration for things that I'm probably not going to have a chance to develop further, but can't help dreaming about all the same. Perhaps these things will inspire you too.

Great design...the squares within squares...love it. The fabric within the larger square is beautiful.
Very inspirational.
