Certificate Module 5 Chapter 6: Tucks, Pleats and Gathers. Day 13

Today I completed the "furrowing" sample that I had started yesterday.  The stitching took a lot longer than I had anticipated, but was worth it as I thought it a very effective technique.

5.6.2  Completed furrowing sample

After gathering the fabric on each side to half its original length and stitching it to a base fabric, as I did yesterday, today's work was to control the fullness, adding ridges and valleys by a series of random double tacking stitches.  I was very pleased with the texture thus created.
