Determined to continue stitching tags for Tag Tuesday, I was indecisive this week about this theme. The tag above, I just finished tonight and used a piece of sun printed fabric from a previous projects, stitched around the outline and couched on some velvet leaves and an autumn fruit. The one below is my rather poor attempt at doing some wool embroidery - supposedly resembling some fruit - not sure if you can recognise an abstract pear and a plum? I wasn't at all happy with this one, so that is why at the last moment, I did the second one. I haven't even looked at all the tags this week, so hopefully, can get to them before the next theme is up.
I like both tags! The bottom one looks very "1970s crewel work." Very cool!
ReplyDeleteBoth tags are lovely! The stitching is great! Valerie
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post, I don't know the tagging.
ReplyDeleteLove them both Wilma, I like the outlining effect and the 3 dimensional additions. The second one reminds me of all the textile books for the 70s I have drooled over, Jan Beaney springs to mind :) Lovely!
ReplyDeleteLove all the textures and colours in that second one - very harvest festival!
ReplyDeleteVery nice autumnal fruits. Great techniques on both.
ReplyDeleteWell done Wilma, I like your stitched tags. It's a great skill to have.
ReplyDeleteI love both tags too Wilma. You always make me want to give working with fabric a try. The abstract stitching is lovely.
ReplyDeleteHow neat! I really like what you've done at the bottom. I recognize the fruit...that is very neat! Great job.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting today and your nice comment...
I hope you'll come by again.

I love the artsy embroidered tag. The texture and organic feel of it is amazing. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteLovely tags, you have inspired me to use my sewing needle a bit more for next week! x
ReplyDeleteI LOVE those Autumn colours - beautiful tags.
ReplyDeleteBoth beautiful tags in different ways. My favourite is the first with it's ever so vibrant colours :0)
ReplyDeleteI love the stitched one, it has a real seventies vibe, I think because of the colours. Well done for sticking with the stitching, it inspired me to get the textiles out again!
