In Progress

I’ve chosen the fabrics. I’ve squared up the background. I’ve worked out the design. I think. I have left the pieces on the table so I can look at the design over the next few days.

It took four tries to figure out the size of the heart.

Seeing how the fabric looks and checking the size of the heart.

Putting down the pieces. I’m not sure I like this arrangement so I’ll revisit the piece in a couple days. My embroidery machine is ready for its annual cleaning, so no quilting work will be done on this until I get my machine back. I want words on the left side. “You have not silenced us.” I thought up a few more emotional words, but I think simple works best here.

So….when you look at this, what do you see? The design is only good if people can see what I’m saying.
