Peacock Stumpwork

I am just going to slot in a wee post about the progress of my stumpwork piece 'Peacock', not a catchy title but I will figure that one out once it's completed. At first I wasn't so convinced by it but now that I have finished off the wing (not sewn it down yet) I am rather pleased with it and look forward to working on the tail feathers. The tail will be a mixture of appliqué and free form wired shapes that will be raised up like the wing, I'll also be mixing the fabrics and notions too. 




I shall work on this one a bit more tomorrow for now I am going to disappear to go and enjoy the sunshine at my parents abode, work on the quilt some more and watch Doctor Who. Life is as they say is getting better with each day, and the sunshine is certainly helping.
