craftgrrlA few things I've been working on over the past couple of days. Please let me know what you think.
A pair of earrings to match the bracelet I made a few weeks ago. Red ceramic beads with metallic accents, gold plated fish hook earrings, gold plated jewelry wire.
A cream fleece hat with glass and brass buttons. This is the simpler of the two hats as I mostly used it as a prototype for the hat shape.
The more elaborate hat. I am very, very pleased with how this came out. Cream fleece hat with red shell buttons (I think the red color is a coating of some sort, because the backs of the buttons are the color of abalone) and hand-embroidered black tree branch.
Bird and branch scarf. This one took longer to make than I'd originally anticipated. Cream fleece with hand stitched felt bird and branch, lined with bright orange cotton, raw fringe.
Close-up of the bird and branch design. I drew the original design on card stock, then transferred it to craft foam to make a permanent pattern so I can make more if I want to. Then I used the fun foam pattern to transfer the design to felt, cut it out and hand stitched it to the scarf using embroidery floss.
