Another month, and another textile piece based on the architecture of a country chosen by a member of our group. If you remember, last month was Egypt, and I posted a photo of my interpretation of details of 2 different temples, the one in Karnak and the one in Aswan.

This month, the country chosen was France, and Helen chose a photo of the Louvre as an inspirational picture. The textiles are all supposed to be mostly in black and white, which I am finding difficult, but at least I am working with a fairly muted colour scheme. They are only small pieces, 21cm x 10.5cm (A5), and so I have mostly hand stitched them, unusual for me as I usually work with machine stitching.
