Lotstodo - Hats / Crowns
This week over on Lotstodo the theme is 'hats and/or crowns'. I free motion embroidered the hearts using black felt and bright yellow thread and then cut them out. I cut the wings and crown from yellow felt with T!m's alteration dies. Stamped the word 'alternative' onto a piece of fabric and covered it with black netting. A piece of hessian was sewn with yellow thread and filled with wadding, the 3 buttons were hand sewn. A strip of bronze criss cross fabric was attached to the background fabric and a piece of black wooly fibre across the top. The pieces where then assembled to create the above.
it's fab Sam!! love the black and yellow combination!!
