Chapter 10 Piecing. A method of cutting and seaming

This designing method is based on the traditional Seminole patchwork method.

I have developed tonal columns using paper and then fabric, these have become more fragmented as  I have worked.

Paper samples first with working sheet below

Fabric sample 2 Creating a mosaic pattern

The process of cutting and seaming repeatedly [see working sheet above]. So glad I photographed as I worked as it would have been impossible to appreciate the nature of the changes. Photos show front and back views.

  1. These look super Carrie. I must admit I've kind of hit "embroiderers' block" with this chapter. However, you have inspired me to buckle down again.
