Design for an embroidered tote bag by Peter and Sally Nencini (image source)

Posting this design by Peter Nencini for reference as I finish my Note Note Tote. I learned so very much from Sally and Peter at the stitching workshop yesterday at the Tetley, looking forward to finishing the tote. However, must be wary of embroidering while fatigued. I’ve got a few new holes in my index finger.

Update: Embroidery thread colours for reference below (brand is Anchor, about 70p per skein online)

Purple 111
Yellow 291

First reported railway death

What a sentence! Never forget the Right Honourable William Huskisson MP, possibly “the world’s first widely reported railway casualty”. People just don’t write tributes like they used to, eh? Just one of the many treasures in the National Railway Museum‘s warehouse.

Work by Swedish artist Michael Johansson. So satisfying, can’t not enjoy a collection of things organised so precisely. Would love to see someone design a portfolio website for him with something like Masonry…
