Day 6
Question: What kind of sewing machine did you learn to sew on, and, what kind of machine do you sew on now? Mine was a Singer, and still is!
Chrysanthemum Tea- by Christen Brown
This piece started with a scrap of commercially embroidered fabric, which I used for the teapot applique, and a few pieces of the border. I found a hand-dyed perle cotton in pink, yellow, and green, and used this for my color palette. I chose silk fabrics in those same colors. I added trims, appliques, buttons and lots of embroidery stitches.
This piece can be seen in The Embroidery Book, by C&T Publishing.
Happy Stitching, ~Christen
I learned to sew on a Singer 65 years ago and now use a Janome.
I think that many of us learned on a Singer!
