The scrim smocking piece is finished. Did a bit of free motion stitching on the scrim to give a lace like frame and backed it with some blue hand dyed cotton.

I love the scrim smocking piece Deanna it is so delicate.
Blue and white always make such a good combination, don't they!
Love the smocking on the denim. Your necklace looks so vintage, very pretty and delicate.
sorry, a bit late on commenting...must have posted after i turned off the computer. the smocking has really been transformed by the blue backing. it looks so different from the first photo...i can see a lot of possibilities for its use. lovely. the crocheting reminds me of my mom. before her illness and arthritis she use to make such beautiful crocheted items. thanks for sharing
yes! blue is the color.necklace too?
Hi, Deanna. Your scrim piece is so elegant and I love the crocheted necklace. Your dyeing experiments a few posts back are interesting as always and the cameo stitched onto fabric is a brilliant idea. Looks so neat!
best, nadia
Beautiful. That necklace is really nice. Would fit as a nice fringe in a cloth too.
oh that blue & white piece is beautiful Deanna you are reinventing lace in a 21st way, strong yet loose!
The blue behind the smocking looks great and such beautiful crocheting. Your curiosity and skill are a lovely combination :)
Your scrim smocking looks delicate and the blue really shows it off - nice work! And I like your crochet necklace too - I recently bought a knit necklace - it's very loosely knit and is a double loop over my head. I like the idea of a soft necklace.
to crochet is to be peaceful and relaxed...it's lovey
How pretty. The necklace will be so nice. Glad that I found your blog through Karen's. :)
All the best,

Wow that smockings come alive! That necklace looks interesting too, sounds lovely.
That smocking on the blue is divine. I love these photos, your crochet work is so beautiful.
so admire your crochet skills & the smocking piece is lovely- will you turn it into a hanging or pillow or ?
