Ribbons And Trees.
Posted on | October 26, 2011 | 12 Comments
I have to admit that I am often easily distracted. Showing me something new with sewing is like waving a toy around in front of a child. I always want to try it out.
I had been playing with ribbons to decorate trees on Christmas cards.
I remembered seeing small wall hangings made with ribbons used for the trees. So of course the cards were moved aside and I played with larger shapes. I cut some heat’n’bond into the shape I wanted then simply ironed different ribbons over it.
I will stitch the ribbon down then choose a suitable fabric for the background. And then maybe a little bit of embellishing.
Then maybe I will go back and finish the cards.
That is gorgeous, great job. I’m loving the colors.
