Friday 22nd June 2012 Esther’s beautiful BOM design Forgetmenot


Green iron on fusing cotton fabric on to heavy 100% wool felt

This will end up a carry bag for a gift in Japan in Oct?????

First 100% blue thick wool felt stars from an old felt 1930's hat!!!! for my forgetmenot flowers

Now adding light-eight cream felt centres to the blue before finally adding the yellow centre

Yellow centres added

Almost finished singing bird added

Stems and leaves machine appliquéd with batting attached behind red felt

Backing fabric added then Echo quilting around outer edge of bag

Felt bird was sewn together first and now been added to design

I made up the wee bird with felt pieces, using tiny drops of glue till I could sew the pieces together using tiny blanket stitches. Now I need to appliqué it on using blanket stitches.

Front of shoulder bag finished!!!!!
