Hubby took both the kids out to various places on Saturday morning and I had a creative urge I jumped on after listening to
Elizabeth Gilberts TED talk on Friday night!
This is a large delicious
silk chiffon and silk organza blossom, all hand cut, shaped, embellished and sewn together. I have attached it to a dual purpose clip/pin back for use in hair or on a dress. So pretty! One of my most popular searches in my etsy store is for ivory hair accessories so thought I had better add some more.
This silk is also ivory but with creamy tones. This
hair comb is a lovely mix of organza lace, feathers and millinery leaves, also listed in my etsy store.
I can't tell you how happy I am to learn new techniques and
this is the result. Free motion embroidery on suede. Thank you Youtube! I have an eighteen year old Janome sewing machine, nothing fancy. I purchased a thirty dollar darning foot, threw on my darning plate and off I went. I love the free-style scribbling - so fun.
