You can't have too many bags!


I love bags! This is one of a series I made but I'm trying to limit myself - not very successfully. Perhaps some more brooches won't take up so much space!
I've been busy with this recently but didn't like the first attempt and ended up cutting it up. Thinking I might be able to salvage a piece I picked this one out and played about with it in PSP. It was originally from a sketchbook page with voile, tissue paper, Fuse FX, acrylics and silk paint. If in doubt, keep adding things! Might add stitch later.

I don't usually get up in the middle of the night to blog, so here is the right time (at the third attempt!)
Well, I've done it now! After writing my first post then (deliberately) deleting it, I decided to have another go. How is it that HI (him indoors), when asked how he knows what to do says "Oh, you just pick it up ..." Pick it up!! If only!

my first post!

Here's my first ever post - after much hesitation, I've decided to take the plunge and share some thoughts about textiles and a few other things. I hope you enjoy my posts and bear with me as I get used to blogging!
