Hurrah! I seem to be in good company in the lateness stakes. After much huffing, puffing & searching, here is my offering. It is based on sketches of parts of my favourite cathedral of all which is Durham. It is also influenced by some work I had been doing on distressed banners & flags.
It has painted & dyed muslin over printed fabrics & the squares are from computer porinted flags of my own design. (There is too much art work to show this). It is bound with twisted 'cords' of muslin overstitched to the edge. Free machining completes the piece.
I have my idea organised for the next round, I think, so there should be a prompter response!

How wonderful that our pieces are so different, and yet have a related source of inspiration! I would be fascinated to to hear more of you work on distressed flags. Is it possible to post a close up photo? I can't seem to open the photo up in a larger format and would love to see your work in more detail.
Thanks Kathryn. Perhaps more about distressed flags later.
I would love to give you a larger format photo but I don't know how to do it!! Do you have to use Picasa or Cool Iris, or something similar. I would appreciate advice from anybody!
