The Next Stage.

I had fun sorting out the most likely threads that I will use on this piece of work. But the real decision is whether to hand or machine stitch. I don't want the stitching to dominate, so it will need to be subtle, so I'm favouring hand stitching at the moment, the other consideration is that I want to work on it while I'm away from home, and although I can take my sewing machine with me, I'd rather not be bothered! I've left the blank piece on the right of the 'cracked mud' silk just for ease of handling, but it will be trimmed back when the stitching is finished.
