Insertion Sample

04
Jun

Test sample for a larger project. I used the Half Daisy Buttonhole to create eyelets for lacing a ribbon for an insertion effect to frame a continuous border of daisies.

This embroidered panel was then set off with a puffing (or ruching, depending on your opinion of the terminology) insertion set between yellow piping.

This was a very quick and dirty little test project to see if I liked the colors, placement, and effects I chose so I didn’t spend a lot of time making sure the puffing strips were perfect.

In the end, I decided I need different fabrics than I had in my stash and after not finding what I wanted while I was in an “heirloom mood” I abandoned the project. Chalk it up to “shiny object” syndrome!

Basket of Daisies

11
Apr

It’s often wise to make a test piece to see how your project might work out and that’s exactly what this one is—a prototype for a more involved project.

Stitch the satin basket then make and attach your 3D flowers. You can stack multiple layers of petals and then stitch them together with the flower center.

Flowers can be made separately and then tacked to your project or you can use the flower center design to stitch the layers together and attach it to the base item in one step.
