Embroidered Evening Bag
It seems like I can only manage to post here once a month. I have been busy making an embroidered evening bag for myself. I pieced various silk and velvet strips then embroidered over them making up the designs as I went. I let the materials give me the inspiration for the flow of the designs. This is the finished strip of material backed with maroon silk.

Wow! It's gorgeous. I admire your beautiful free-flow embroidery, both the colors and the stitching, it really stands out.
ReplyDeleteGreat variety of stitching on your bag and I like how some of it stays within the borders of the piece of fabric while others expand over several fabric pieces.
