'Daffodil and Snowdrops'
A little textile tag
I started with a needle felted background on denim and machine stitched some
Oliver Twist short length yarns on top and couched on some dark green chenille.
Next I added little daffodil head from this great tutorial except I made it a quarter of the size.
I used printed yellow fabric for the petals, satin edged rayon ribbon for the flower centre,
pearly seed beads for snowdrop petals, I hand stitched their dark stalks
and added some tiny seed beads into the ground area.
I then hand stitched the whole piece onto some layered fabric
and organza and frayed the edges,
backed it with card and added a selection of hand dyed yarns
and a white ribbon for the tie.
Tag: Card Backing, Fabric & crystal organza, denim & needle felted wool
Embellishment: Yarns, Fabric flower and beads.
Tie: Ribbon & yarns
I'm quite excited about spring :) the sign of things to come,looking forward to the warmer weather and spending more time out in the garden, already there is more sun shining into my little studio each day filling it with light and warmth.
Looking forward to seeing Tag Tuesday fill up with spring flowers this week!

ReplyDeleteA really stunning tag. I LOVE the daffodil, and I love all the details you've worked into the tag - the snowdrops are delightful, and all the different textures are so interesting - I keep discovering more in it each time I look!
ReplyDeleteYvonne, this is amazing! glad you took so many pics, there is something special in each one. The daddodil is fantastic, but also love the frayed organza over the flowery fabric background. So much attention to detail, Jane xx
