Whilst tidying up in the studio, I came across another piece of "Soft and Red" prepared background. So....
...rather than making a complete change into new tribal-inspired work....
..I decided to let the two simply merge....
...to change slowly.....
...to evolve into their new selves.
Inspired by a gorgeous piece of stitchery, again from Afghanistan (supplied by Rayela),
...I used one of the chain-stitch bands on my own piece.
It feels "comfortable" in there....
...I'll go with it...
..and see where it leads.
