I did take just a few odds and ends with me on vacationm ( a small bag of embroidery thread, seed beads and some collages printed onto fabric). I thought this would help pass the time in the air travelling. However, we did spend a few evenings watching some of the Olympic events in Vancouver,so I was happy to have them as I am not the type of person who can sit and watch TV without having something else 'on the go' - especially sports!
So, most of these photos are just random close up images of pages in progress, the most ambitious of which was embroidering a chandelier...yup - just choked and squirmed in my chair as I typed that phrase out...What can I say? I find it very relaxing...

Lovely work and the closeups are great.
Your workmanship is amazing. I'll be watching for the chandelier to show up!
OMG! You DID embroider a chandelier!!! I squinted and squinted to try to see "more" in each of these enticing pictures, Trudi. I absolutely LOVE your fabric collages and can't wait to see the final results. Hugs, Terri xoxo
Trudi these are just delicious close up shots...and I am with you on hand stitching and tv it is just too boring to sit there and watch without doing SOMETHING else!!!
Those are great. I felt like I was looking at something in a magazine. I love those close up pictures. :)Bea

All of your art here is so gorgeous. I am trying to find word to describe how I love it. Your photographs have drawn me into each stitch and bead, each tiny detail is a work of art in itself. Your days of vacationing and art. So lovely... roxanne
Love all the details here. These shots really show off the texture of these pieces. Great photography too!
You are a multi-talented lady! Great needlework.
