swirls and more...


          hello everyone ,
                                    
                                    a very very HAPPY EASTER to all of you ,

         As , this whole month was dedicated to the swirly and curly pattern , I did my best to give as much patterns as possible . Now today , being the last week of this swirly designs , I'll surely not disappoint you . It doesn't mean that no more swirls to be posted by me ---- oh , no no ! It simply mean that from the next month I'll be giving some other theme .
       
        So starting from the first pattern ----- a simple floral pattern with leaves . Paint it or embroider it , using golden metallic touch for a royal effect . Little bit of sequins and beads can be added .

      ...another border embroidery pattern to be used as a print , too . Done in chain stitch with flowers in lazy-daisy stitch , ending with yellow star stitches all over . You can add a french knot or a very small bead in each center .

button,ribbon and embroidery..
















this is just an old memory . I made this tunic for my daughter. Lovely colour...isn't it ??? I love it too , the bright and bold orange with red stripes , and that big button , and the embroidery which I drew directly on the dress after sewing it..!! Some falling flower bunches here and some there, and also using so many vibrant colour threads made the total dress at once hit for my princess. Well , the raw edge of the fabric on the sides of the ribboned belt was my 8yrs old daughter's idea. She gave me the idea of using the frayed edges and just see it came out to be quite beautiful . So one thing I learned that day was not to throw every cut outs and try using it into something amazing inventions...do it...you'll surely love it.
                                                                        see you.
