I am glad you liked the page Elizabeth, its one i have been worried about as i wasn't 100% happy with it. Firstly i coloured up lutradour and then using a soldering iron i burned the windows out of the arch and using french knots i held the windows open. I printed a view of an old house on to cotton and added stitch around the window frames and frech knots for the roses. I stitched the cotton to the lutrador trying to give an apperance of looking through the window at the view outside. To add a stained glass effect i added chocolate wrappers to the top of the arch and machine stitched around the edges. I did add a little pocket to the back of it to hold a couple of little bits.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great window interpretation. I'd love to see a close up so I can see the details.
ReplyDeleteAll the pages are so different. And all I have seen are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteA very interesting view of windows. I haven't tried working with Lutrador yet, but this looks so pretty I will have to put that on my list!
ReplyDeleteThat's so many techniques,and materials and processes I have not tried.I'd love to see a close up too.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Elizabeth would take a close up for you ladies, my camera is not good on close ups which is why i didn't take one.
