It's all about the pocket! In my class with Karen, I've constructed a pocket, using the Broderie Anglais I embroidered as well as some wild, pink batik fabric I love.
Here's the front:
The back:
I like the way the pattern of the batik shows through the Broderie Anglais
A closer look at the applique with cast-on stitch edging
as I fold back the front flap, you can see some of the pink batik lining and a large white pocket with buttonhole lace edging. On that pocket is a smaller, pink batik one.
And on the pink pocket is the lace I made and embellished. It, too, has a buttonhole lace edging.
The pattern of the batik shows through the white.
a closer look at the lace
I like the way the batik peeks through the openings, as well as the tiny holes in the lace.
I've already started another pocket. Is this the start of a new obsession?
I hope you've had a pleasant and creative week.
