What I am reading in bed – September

And the recipients should have received their ATCs for August. The theme was ‘chair’. I took my inspiration from a sketch of a peacock chair. The background is colour washed inktense sticks and the chair was FME using two colours of metallic thread, charcoal and a silver on top. I love the illuminations black jewel metallics which I bought from the Thread studio, they have great depth of colour.

I haven’t seen the book, but will check it out. Time permitting.
Did you use the two metallic threads at the same time through your needle, or just one then another pass with the other? It’s very glittery, just like a peacock’s attitude.
I enjoy reading what you’re up to.

Lovely ATC. The metallic thread works really well against the background.
