Btw. you can see a small part of my surface couching embroidery for my 12th century bliaut slit neckline on the right side.

Wooohoooo! Countdown! Just 1 day left! …and I just finished my embroidered 14th century pouch for the raffle! I just managed to finish the embroidered 14th century pouch! …and there is still one day left until the raffle! *happydance* This “petite” pouch is inspired by an actual 14th century pouch from France.

2014/02/24

Are you ready to start your week with some new progress pictures? I definitely am! 😉 About two days ago I thought that it is definitely time for some fun for me and many new progress pictures for you and I started working at my side project again… I admit it, after my in-deepth posting about German Brick Stitch and step 2 for my “Craft with Racaire” project #1, I definitely needed a short break from German Brick Stitch. Therefore I started working again at my 14th century inspired gaming pouch for my 14th century inspired backgammon game.

Sneak peek – hand sewing a pouch for my 14th century inspired Backgammon Game

2014/02/18

I “found” some awesome fabric in my stash and just started hand sewing a pouch for my 14th century inspired Backgammon game. I really couldn’t help it, I really had to do it – it was just too tempting. *lol* 😉 Well this small side project here is quasi a treat for myself for all the German Brick Stitch chart work I have recently done for my first project. I really needed a brake from it. Another “good” reason is that I still need a nice pouch to protect my hand-painted 14th century inspired Backgammon board which I finished last year. Btw. I put together some pictures of it to…
