Autumn Leaves and Robins

 Shirley's Autumnal Panel. She's machine knitted the fabric then fulled it in the washing machine. Then added some leaves and was embroidering them down using a variation of stem and blanket stitch.
 Celia's purchases. One from Thurso which was machine embroidered and the other from Vietnam which was hand embroidered.
Celia's wee robin.
 Shirley's lutrador panel. Its icy blue with a top layer trapping in various threads and leaves.
Dorothy's Hymn book cover. This is a three layer sandwich of lutrador, threads and sparkles and then bondawebbed with a chiffon top layer then embroidered down.
Catherine's Autumn leaves. She'd painted some lutrador and then hot air gunned it to get some holes. She was matching threads to start embroidering onto it.
