This 'page' is sitting on my table waiting for stitching and embellishment. Although this isn't really a 'blank' canvas as I have already put a collage of fabric and paper upon the true blank page -- it is still 'blank' from my standpoint.
It needs more layers -- its needs some embellishment and most of all it needs stitchery. The stitchery is the 'exciting' part. What stitches will I use? What would go here and over there? How many French knots or x's should go in this spot?
Okay time to thread the needle...

You are at least past the truly blank canvas stage - no white paper staring accusingly, asking "What are you going to do with me?"
ReplyDeleteSo lovely and muted. Looking forward to seeing the embellishments.
ReplyDeleteAnticipation from up here!
