These are lovely Judy! I do embroidered flower/tree pendants too but I embroider them directly onto felt/silk etc then glue them into the bezel. I read in your recent post that you stitch the flowers separately with dissolving stabilizer then attach to the background to give a more 3D effect. Are these done that way too? It is very effective!
Thanks for your comment. This time, I got a bit lazy and embroidered directly on the felted background. But I do like the effect of the other way. Both have their own quality. I usually have aqua magic dissolvable stabilizer hooped in a small hoop ready to use for stitching small flowers. Then with some different coloured floss, needle and scissors, I’m ready if I have a few minutes to spare. Nice project for travelling too.
Love them....love them....love them.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jo.

Amazing amount of detail in something so small. I love these.
