Artful Times challenge No 12 Inches


I love doing inches, especially fabric ones. The yellow ones I started  with some felting, layered with organza,  and machine embroidered on top, and then zapped with the heat gun. The blue and pink ones are done on pelmet vilene, with organza on top . Again these were stitched with free machine embroidery and some embellishments added.
The yellow ones are for a swap, but the others lurk in my collection of fabric inches, which reside in a very nice homemade book from a friend..

    These are so pretty Wendy. I've never made any but always meant to. They'd be very versatile for cards, brooches and other decorative elements.

    WOW Wendy these all gorgeous and I can't believe that you got some much onto one of those little squares. Do you have an embellisher machine?

    Thanks for playing along with us again this week.
