Inspiration photo
The first layer of my piece is the gray/blue velvet background fabric.
The velvet had been a bit to close to some dye action and has some great pinkish smudges.
I added the embossed circles with a circle template and iron.
I then made a variety of fabric flowers. Flowers are in a variety of fabrics for a rich texture effect.
Fabrics include: velvet, silk, satin, cotton, sari cord, very loose weave poly, tulle netting.
Yo-yo's, beads, buttons, ribbon, marker and hand stitching as well a some machine stitching were then added.
All the flowers are hand stitched on, but I did add some hot melt glue for extra stability.
Hope you are having a great day!
