A very overdue update on the waistcoat. So both flowers are complete or are they?
I feel like I need to add more. So still work in progress! As you can tell I’m in no hurry to finish. In fact I’m quite enjoying taking my time being able to pick it up do a little stitching & put it down again.

My recent patch swap offering! Using up bits & bobs with a lot of slow stitching & a little bit of embroidery stitch of a sort!
Still working on the waistcoat previously shown between other things. Soon it will be finished 🤞😂

Actually stated this last year & only just got round to finishing! Typical me! 😂 Anyway it was originally a dress not unlike the last pic. Sorry pic got chopped. I did not take any photos throughout the transformation process but to recap….
The cut off hem became the sleeves. The braid was added to make bigger & a little Broderie Anglaise trim added to the hem. Both braid & trim were from my stash & dress was preloved.

Progress is slow but equally slowly coming together! 😁
Trying to use whatever blue tone threads I already have without introducing any other s & not buying any!
