As I wasn't very happy with the samples in this chapter and on Siân's advice I cut up the first sample . Wavy lines were cut horizontally and put onto adhesive solulable with some space between each stripe. Also, these were put so as to form a slight curve. Further snippets of fabric were added before the stitching. I tried to leave some glue in the piece and put it on paper rolls covered with a kitchen towel to prevent the fabrics from sticking to the paper. This created a wavy line and gave a new life to a boring piece. I'm quite happy with this new sample. Experimenting to create a 3D piece opens up new possibilities I will certainly explore.
Another sample which got cut up and woven with painted coton organza strips.
Put on adhesive soluble with gaps left between the rows, this new sample got stitched in freemotion zigzag.
I think that these two samples make you focus even more on the details of the stitching
