Today I made a choker to match the dress I've been making. I am pleased with it, although I think perhaps the button at the back is a little big. On the other hand, it's not going to fall off and it's at the back. Besides, I actually quite like the chunkiness of it.

The dress will probably have similar embroidery. The patchwork is down to the thighs at the front so far and I should get more done tomorrow. On Monday term starts and my plan is to be in the workshop all day trying to remember and use forgotten skills.



Choker to match rag dress
It's made in the same way as the Rag Dress, from little scrippets of fabric. It has embroidery in perle cotton and small glass beads and fastens with a big button at the back.

Currently reading Possession by A. S. Byatt. I wasn't sure about it during the first twenty pages, but when I put it down I realised that I was loving it. Strange how that happens, sometimes.

Oh, and Baudolino is fantastic in more than one sense of the word.
