day 18

An early bird this time
:-)
(that leaves a bit of time to do some more felting !)

For this jewel
I just started by making a BIG textile bead,
and after that the rest of the idea emerged.

On a background of "Hobbs" I start with all kinds of snippets of fabric.
Then comes the fun part of random stitching
with my wonderful shiny polyester/rayon threads with different machine stitches.
After rolling it around a skewer and stitching it tight
I finish the holes at the side with matching coloured thread.
Done !

Here is my PINK RIBBON Textile Jewel
for day 18 :

a wet felted half circle with a long textile bead and on an adjustable homemade cord,
stitched on both sides with silk and silver thread,
and many seed beads.
(6 x 8cm,    2.4 x 3.15")
