BJP3 starts

At last I have chosen a theme for this year's project- "Textures". This will enable me to combine my explorations with embellishing on the machine and my beading.
The size has chosen itself-6"x6". This happened because while I was looking for inspiration I came across a piece of fibre work that I had done last year that seemed to be calling out for beading to finish it off!
If the weather cools down a little bit it should be finished before the end of the month.
