 Today I am giving you 3 images as 1 detail…They are on my Beret (big image on flicka) As you can see whilst they are 3 separate flower trails they are made up of the same and similar elements and work together as one embellishment to create movement around the piece and to balance the circular shape.
These details are visually self explanatory as a mix of gathered ribbon flowers and lace flower with beads sparkling in there centres…what is interesting at least for me to reflect back on is that this Beret from 1998 was made before I had a ready access to coloured/dyed laces and I coloured the big black flowers with permanent ink pen and used stenciling paint for the other colours.

This is a clever little seam treatment with the flowers. Did you just cut flowers off a chain of flowers or from some trims? I think painting them with stencilling paint sounds swell.
