Button Flower Brooch

July 9th, 2008

I got hold of about 50m of ric rac recently and didn’t know what to do with it and so did a search online for ideas and came across this tutorial at madewithlovebyhannah. The site is full of amazing stuff using really lovely fabrics and embroidery – a true inspiration!

The photos in the tutorial make it look so easy and also show very neat stitching. I’m afraid mine wasn’t so neat and it took me ages…as I kept on thinking it looked a mess and giving up, but as a finished product I’m now really pleased with it and can’t wait to make more.

Hopefully my stitching and neatness will improve with time. I have some really striking buttons to use and will post up more pictures as and when I’ve completed some more.
