Sting in the Tale


I have not been stitching anything that I could blog for a while so have looked at last year's Yorkshire Travelling Journal entries to see what I could find.  I messed about with dyeing with nettle leaves in the middle of the year.  An experience I will not be repeating.  It was very smelly and the results were very poor.  I used the Silk Noil fabric I dyed to create this piece ....


I made a plastic stencil and used Markel Oil Sticks to colour the fabric.  The image was then stitched into and a scrap from a dictionary was added.

  1. That's lovely ! I miss having seen everyone's journal which we usually do at the Tiger - the only one I see complete is yours.
