I loosely used a pattern from Christine Barnes and had a wonderful time choosing the different fabrics and trims. I backed the 'difficult' fabrics with black iron-on vilene to give them a little more stability.

Assessment Piece 3
I've just finished my third assessment piece for my City and Guilds course. The brief was that it had to be based on the non-block patchwork that we did last term and had to be an accessory. I checked that a waistcoat would be classed as an accessory - which it would, luckily, as that's what I wanted to make - and chose to make it with machine stitched crazy patchwork.

Congratulations on a lovely assessment project.
What an exquisite piece of work!
You've really outdone yourself on this one.
How many more assessment pieces will you do?
What a nice garment! And a nice chance to work with other fabrics and embellishments.
Wow! This is so artistic, Amanda!
