Day 12

Question: When you design a project, do you sometimes think, hmm I like that, but I want to try it in another colorway or design? Here are a few of my ideas.

Castle Door and Rustic Door: These two wall hangings are based on a door theme, using vintage and new keys as the focus. The first piece is all machine stitched, with hand embellished charms and ephemera. The second piece is machine quilted and hand embroidered, with ribbon trims and ephemera.

Bouquet of Flowers: These two small wall hangings start with a lace basket, and lace trims, but change dramatically with the choices I made in color palettes. The project can be found in my book Beaded Embroidery Stitching, by C&T Publishing.

Beadazzled Stitches was a class that I taught for many years, that eventually grew-up to become the nexus for my book Beaded Embroidery Stitching, by C&T Publishing. I love both color ways here!
