This is my latest entry for the fabric round robin I'm a part of. Am enjoying this project so much, I'll be sad when it's over. 8 down, 4 to go.
I wanted to use needle felting on this one, so needed a fairly bold/simple focal motif. I settled on a heart and a triangle. No reason! :)
I didn't have a big enough piece of wool felt to use as the background, so sliced up two smaller pieces and sewed them back together in a stripey pattern.
Next the heart was felted on using merino roving, a border was cross stitched around it, and then I embroidered the three points of the triangle.
The background looked a little empty at this point, so I added some purple seed stitches to liven it up a bit.
A bit of red bias binding to finish, and it was all done.
A close up of all the textures, this one is very strokable:
Roll on the next one!
Really like this one roo, I admire your patience with the detail - but i really like the colours and the sentiment!. JR
