Cloth to Cloth online Workshop

This is a quick post to tell you about an online workshop Cloth to Cloth by Jude Hill. The workshop will begin on May 15th and it will go for 4 weeks. I have been following Spirit Cloth by Jude Hill ever since I started blogging. She is a strong influence for me to start free form stitching and I love it. I'm so delighted that Jude has started teaching an online workshop. I'm so looking forward to it.

I stitched this up when we went for a picnic at our local beach on Mother's Day. I never leave home without a bag of fabric and threads. You never know what will inspire you walking along the beach. This is supposed to be an island with waves going in different directions. Tilt your head a little to the left when you are viewing this. It should be set on point. Notice the cracked shell? It cracked when I tried to scan it. I will have to glue them together I think...!

A basket full of Japanese fabric in taupe range that I will be using for the workshop. I will also dye some threads to use for the workshop too. I think I will dye some in bronze, brown and tan.

Remember "Pieces of Japan" that I stitched throughout Japan? It's really a start of my free form stitching. I found it so relaxing to just start with a piece and then to add more pieces once the first one is done. After a little while the design elements immerse within itself. Cloth to Cloth will cover quilt weaving and free form stitching. Jude has another two workshops to follow this one and I've already put my name down for Patchwork Beasts that is due to start later on in the year.
