Technique Tuesday!
One of my other tutorials on the basics of bead embroidery will be very helpful here! When you’re going to embroider a piece of fabric and then glue it onto a structure, use either ultra-suede or buckram as the foundation, depending upon how heavy the beads and bits are going to be. Here’s how I made this little piece:
I love it. Looks like a fairly fast, but beautiful little project. I wonder how big it is. I have old print letters, but they are only about 1″-2″ tall. Is your letter that small?
I should have stuck the dimensions in there! This is a fairly tall letter, about 4 inches, add another inch for the “stem” and about 2 more for the beaded piece
I know you already saw it, but for everyone else’s benifit: Tag! You’re it!
YOU are such a creep!!! LOL!
