Floral Glove Needlecase – The Finishing Kit
Finishing Kit for the Floral Glove Needlecase
Another gentle thump through the letterbox and the Finishing Kit for the Floral Glove Needlecase has arrived.
Neatly die-cut pieces of card, interfacing, and fabric, lengths of ribbon and lace… It all looks rather promising, doesn’t it!
The first thing I need to do (I’ve looked at the instructions online but not quite got as far as printing them out) is to embellish the ribbon with gold thread and spangles. I am learning from this project that the layering of intricate detail and embellishment can be hugely successful; even when you think something is as ornate as it needs to be, sometimes it looks better with more.
That doesn’t work with fashion – I remember coming across this some years ago. Even now I survey myself critically in the mirror before going out, to see whether I need to remove an accessory. And this is a link to the picture referred to in the post.
these kits always look so exciting!! It must be like christmas in your house every time the postman comes.
Another exciting project. Where do you find the time?
I’m glad that you find my Queen stitch entry useful 🙂 🙂
Looking forward to seeing it all made up!
