TAST 8 and Vintage Threads

Take a Stitch Tuesday - this week we are doing chain stitch. It is a simple stitch so this time I have kept the page for my fabric journal fairly simple. There is a piece of vintage fabric, some painted paper, dyed lace and a needle felted flower. This page was attached to another page with blanket stitch.

Below are some vintage threads that I bought at an Embroiderers Guild meeting, I love the cards that the thread is wrapped around.

Liberty Bottle and Embroidery

For the Three Muses challenge - Bottles or Jars

The background is a drawing and the bottle is a photo of an old vinegar bottle, the label was from Graphics Fairy. The Statue of Liberty photo I altered, I've had the original photo for years and I can't remember where I got it from.

I got the embroidery below from my loft when I was clearing out, a sample from when I did my City & Guilds. It is stitched on fabric and stitched around a CD. What may look like shisha glass is actually the CD where I have cut holes in the fabric. It is just one CD enclosed in the fabric.
