I am stitching these birds for Nicola Jarvis for an exhibition she is having at the William Morris gallery in London later in the year so they are not actually mine as such. I believe Nicola will be making some of the designs available as kits at the time of the exhibition so I suggest you check her website http://www.nicolajarvisstudio.com/ for info or contact her directly. <br />Best wishes, AnnaAnna https://www.blogger.com/profile/02942756202056729563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119166177210424241.post-84333531243098932362013-03-14T10:29:19.164+10:302013-03-14T10:29:19.164+10:30Hi Anna!

I like if for stumpwork where I tack it in place over any raised areas - it help the needle slide over it rather than accidentally catching the stitches. It is true it can get a bit sticky though. <br />Anna x Anna https://www.blogger.com/profile/02942756202056729563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119166177210424241.post-50138987886454210572013-03-10T08:41:37.397+10:302013-03-10T08:41:37.397+10:30What a coincidence, Rose.

I only found that out by accident because I didn't have any of the wipes left in the house - how funny is that?

Now ...The birds are very beautiful. Dreamy colours.<br />Now about your back ... If your back hurts it may be a sign that you are losing strength in certain muscles that hold the torso erect. Slumping perhaps at times? There are many easy exercises that will help. It is probably the obliques and the core of the body that need strengthening the most. Try gently twisting the body. Sit on the floor with arms out wide. Turn as far as you can to the left and then the right. Repeat ten times. Build on this. Remember those ballet exercises from childhood? They will also strengthen these muscles. <br />Your body is a tool in stitching so look after it well.MLM247https://www.blogger.com/profile/06365562372896637044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119166177210424241.post-83886950406872680702013-03-09T19:52:59.814+10:302013-03-09T19:52:59.814+10:30Anna,

Good tip about the interfacing. I have used cling wrap (American term), and although it works, it has a tendency to be too sticky when you are working, and then it "crawls".<br />-Sharon in FranceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119166177210424241.post-30932175834003333622013-03-09T03:38:22.502+10:302013-03-09T03:38:22.502+10:30Beautiful work Anna!
