Reds! Sunset and hot tropics - the continuing story

 I will finish this within the next few weeks - it won't go back into a "work in progress" bag or bin.


It is the first work I'll complete in my new studio space. I've relocated to Greenfield, in western Massachusetts and hope to concentrate solely on my textiles and paper arts.




This small set of notes is what I used to develop the pattern. It is written on the back of the yarn label.






My working point of view - it's a glorious riot of color.

Linen Apron "ocean blue"

Cross-back Japanese style working apron, linen, hand stitched, about 50 in x 36in
2018


Using remnants, assembling three strips 50in x 13in to form the basic rectangle.


All stitching is running stitch.  The seams to piece together the stips are flat-felled so that it is neat on the back side.
