1a  Trerice House – I took this picture of the front of the house and picked out the doorway lintel shape and shape of the window arches and a close up of one of the door bosses with a  drawing.

Positive and negative shapes cut and pasted – could be a starting point for reverse applique or Mola work

Joining the outlines and filling the shapes with ideas for machine embroidery

 

2a. I couldn’t resist Traitor’s Gate and added text to tea stained  background with the picture mounted on top; a useful technique I thought for a memory book  or wall hanging.  Also my painting with stencilled text.

3a  I felt very inspired by FIngal’s Cave, an amazing atmospheric place

A close up of the rock strata and structure just had to be interpreted into manipulated tissue (fabric)
