In between sewing sequins, beads, and felt for Dylan's stocking I worked on my submission to The Play Date Café's challenge #64 with Julie Ranae's colors teal, grey, and tan.
This small wall hanging (appr. 12" square) is titled "Oh, Snap!". The background is grey and tan fabric cut in curves and then woven together. The pieces were stitched together with teal thread and a decorative machine stitch.
The flowers are recycled wool fabric, the teal is from a thrift store jacket and the grey is from a jacket I had made years ago when I worked in the fabric store. The flower centers are snaps and the stems are a zipper. I added silver/grey sheer ribbon for leaves and the finished edges of the piece. Grass is again the teal felt and I literally dropped the buttons onto the piece and sewed them down where they landed.
so lovely to see a sewing project as an entry to the PDCC :) thanks for playing along!
