Machine Wrapped Chord


Just pulled this out of the archives. A while ago I had a fettish for machine wrapped chords. I did this with two or more strips of fabric twisted togethor and zigzagged with a large stitch. These come in handy for  giftwrapping, wraps for journals or any decorative ideas you can think of.  A fancy thread on the machine helps in the embellishment of the chord.  You could also add beads or other bits and  pieces.  Its all about using your imagination.   This one needs  to be finished.

A Floral Brooch



I finished this brooch recently.  I had done it in stages.  Knitted sweater strips
were zigzagged along the edges and gathered to form this flower shape.
A  piece of felted knitting was needle felted to form the center
and lastly beads were sewn on.
