Its so satisfying to see commissioned work come to print. Particularly following a big project. I have just completed my biggest yet, a set of seasonal bunting for the Spring 2015, Cross Stitch & Needle Work Magazine. I have just had a printed copy of the first Spring instalment fall through my letter box so thought now would be a good time to share with you the whole process in photos. Everybody working proses is different and mine continues to evolve. I thought you may enjoy a little glimpse behind the scenes.....
1. Initial Drawings
2.Draw finished designs ready to stitch.
3.Select colour pallet...
4. Stitch, tweaking as I go.... (that's tweaking not twerking!)
5. Chart finished design ready for print.
6. My lovely mum stitches work in to finished item.
I document my finished item, post of the magazine then wait for magazine to arrive.
Then around three months later......
