In fact I think I could spend a lot of time planning and not much actually stitching.
The second pic shows the stitching I have done this evening. The colour is not good but never mind. I have stitched ribbons and trims onto the fabric with the doiley attached. Over the top I have added burgundy nylon tulle and stitched it down with matching and contrasting threads.
I managed to break one needle: I serviced the machine last week but forgot to change the needle. It really needed a thicker, stronger needle anyway so now it is done.
The batting and lining are downstairs so it will have to wait until tomorrow.
It really is good to be doing something creative.

Dian, the colours look really lovely to me on this monitor, as does your stitching. I know exactly how you feel when you describe thread/trim choice for new projects. I spend far too much time planning!! This is going to make something quite special I'm sure. It is good to just get in make something, isn't it.
