Embroidered Medal Brooch + Party!!

After doing my last embroidery and enjoying it very much, I got together with a few of my girls and had a Bitchin' Stitch party. Some beginners, some more experienced, but all very talented and we had a blast.

Jackie, Cynthia, Cecilia, Victoria.

Here's what I was working on:

Beginning sketch and completed embroidered ribbon detail.

Work in progress, shape details complete.

Filled in interior, front and back view.

Sewed on the back, then turned it right side out.

Hand stitched outside edge. Finished front and back view.

So sharp.

Winter Embroidered Brooch

Lately I have been getting into brooches. They are so fun and are easy to add to any outfit. They are also very versitile. I have turned into a bit of a collector lately and I hung up a thick piece of felt in my room with giant push-pins so I could display them all. Here they are!

Having some fun embroidered ones I thought I'd made some of my own. I was inspired by the winter weather and all the cute illustrations by Memi the Rainbow. With winter break also came a bunch of free time and I decided it was time! I embroidered this little guy and filled him with a little poly-fil so that he is a bit squishy. Horray!
