My June page is done. I started late but once the mood hit, it didn’t take long to do. It’s not a very complicated one but June is a busy month. I work best against a deadline.
There is a birthday cake for my birthday. I hear I share June with several other blog members. It looks like grey icing and a grey candle but they are purple in person. DAD is for Father’s Day. It is International UFO Month so I had to have a cute little alien. International Bicycle Day is this month and it is International Blood Donor Month.
I drew out the different pictures on some washaway stabiliser. It worked well, except for the blood drop as you can see it looks fine here
But when I washed away the stabiliser it looked like this.
The first thing I tried was needling the felt to move it back into place. it works well a lot of the time when things need realigning. but that didn’t work. So, I used more of the red thread to fill in. I thought it might make the shape funny but it worked great.
I picked some grey for July. It’s neutral so it can take anything. I may just do abstract stitching but I haven’t decided yet.
