May 2016 - September 2016

For one reason or another I seem to have got behind with documenting these. This project continues to be fun and a source of inspiration, it is so interesting to look at how the the themes are interpreted and the cards constructed. The range of techniques that are used is diverse and includes mixed media, stitch - hand, machine and free motion machine embroidery. Appliqué and collage are also frequently used.
