Day 12 Sunday – Detail 12 – A seam on my Box Top July 2nd, 2006

Have you seen
Sharon’s day 12 detail?

day 012

I have not been a speed stitcher today…Sharon showed me the block when I visited last week, I started this seam treatment on my Box top while I was there, thank you Sharon.

the box top thus far

This is the piece that I am making to put on top of a special old blanket box.

Scroll down on my embroidery page to see details of the seams already on it.

Below is the Box I am making it for.

Day 11 -Ruched Ribbon July 1st, 2006

Ruched Ribbon

Ruched Ribbon..I used a narrow satin ribbon, gathered it reasonably tightly and stitched it place with seed beads, scrunching it together more at one end.

how to ruch

To Ruch ribbon run a gathering thread along the length of the ribbon and gather the ribbon to disired density or to fit the seam it is to cover.

You will have guessed that details 5 to 11 are from the same project, I have now detailed all the embellishments and below is the Project that they are all on so that you can see how the individual embellishments work together…I have put a Large image on flicka.
