beads added around silk yoyos and feather stitch |
Turquoise bead added, right, blue beads on left.... |
Feather stitch added here. |
I've had time to get some embroidery and beads added. The big turquoise bead went in and the little blue Czech beads, which I really like for the sparkle.
I get attached to my embellishments so I spend some time making sure they go in just the right place. The glass crystal vintage button was hard for me to "give up", rare and well made. It sets off the silk yoyos with the white netting. More embellishing to come.

I am sure the buttons have found a great home on your hussif. Or do they prefer to be in a jar in a cupboard...
ReplyDeleteThe combination of glass and turquoise is lovely.
You are right, I'm sure "they" prefer to shine like they were meant to.
ReplyDeleteThanks Queenie.
I know exactly what you mean about not wanting to give up precious embellishments. I have a couple of beautiful blue Czech buttons that I bought several years ago and never did put them on the project because I liked them too much. They're still in my stash!
ReplyDeleteI have a tiny box of special glass buttons that I will most likely never use. I just like to take them out and look at them every so often...
