Sketching and sewing.

The new sketch book starts.

Part photo part sketch,

One panel complete.

I have been shut away in my sewing room all day today in an attempt to get on with some work. I started the day by cutting out and organising the photos I had taken and printed of Liverpool city centre. Next I began to put them into a new sketch book for the city project. It is very early days so I do not yet know where this project will take me . Today I looked at the ornate patterns on parts of the buildings in some of the photos.  A few hours later, I felt I needed a break so I decided to crack on with my wall hanging.  However, this took complete hold of me and several hours later I had finished the first panel as well as doing quite a considerable amount of work on the second panel.  I feel I have done enough for one day so the couch, a drink, a big bar of chocolate and a chic flick will end the day off nicely.
