These are done on some of the fabric pieces that I dyed last week.
Again, not too much stitching.....
..rather allowing the piece to form itself.....
...around itself.
I've managed to find some ostrich egg-shell beads at last!
Only a few (86 actually)...but will be used with consideration to make them last :-)
In the same packet were some lovely coral pieces.....in a luscious gold/bronze colour...now just WHAT are THEY going to do for something :-)))))
...and I have had mega-luck in the charity shops.....
....finding some REAL necklaces to use for beads...
(rather than those awful plastic things with the beads stuck onto the string!)
I'm still looking for "unusual" things to use too....
...so this is a good place to introduce an ESSENTIAL part of the kit of any embroiderer.....
...hee hee heee...........
Play time!
