Day 10

Question: How do you choose a color pallet for a project? I start with the fabric, and work from there.

Beautiful Beaded Blooms by Christen Brown

This project started with two colors of moire fabric, and a cotton print that came with a bounty of an array of greenery options. I paired the foundation pieced block, with lavish amounts of embroidered beading, vintage buttons and charms to create an opulent-looking wall hanging that hints of an earlier era.

This is a project in my book Embroidered and Embellished by C&T Publishing.

Happy Stitching, ~Christen
