Felt brooch, sparkling island. Ideal Christmas gift

Just put this lovely felt brooch into my


 My inspiration for this pretty felt brooch was a sparkling island and the sea as the sun shone down on them.
 I make all of my felt by hand layering wool fibres together and wet felting them so that the fibres become entangled creating a firm felt fabric. For this brooch, I have also added some silk fibres to give more texture. I machined around various areas of the island which has raised them up and added french knots in antique metallic silver thread. Running stitches in the same thread have been added to the sea.
Vintage fabric and pin on the reverse.
 
 The felt brooch will be packaged securely in a box. I will then place the box in a plastic postage bag to keep dry.
 
ONLY £6.50 and ideal little Christmas present

Felt brooch with silk embroidery, Christmas colours

Just put this lovely brooch in my etsy shop.

CLICK HERE TO BUY

  A felt brooch made with merino wool and silk in wonderful multiple shades on a white background. Great Christmas colours.

The four seed pods are made from antique silks which I make on the embellisher machine by layering together different silks. I have then machine stitched around the seed pods which makes them stand up slightly proud. These add further texture to the brooch. I have hand embroidered the stems with tiny chain stitches using a fine antique goldwork thread. French knots complete the embellishments.

 The reverse has had the addition of decovil light fabric for further strength and this was then covered with a 1960's vintage fabric. Finally a good strong pin has been stitched to the reverse side.
 The felt brooch measures approx 9cms /3.5"long x 4.5cms/1.8" at the widest point.

Ideal for a Christmas gift.

Felt hanger or parcel tag with antique rose toile addition.


I've made this felt hanger or tag from pink merino wool fibres and silk strands. The felt has been made by a process of wet felting by hand so that the hooks on the wool all lock together creating a strong fabric.

It has been embellished with one of my favourite antique textiles, French toile fabric. This image of a red rose has been sewn onto the felt with machine stitching and further decoration has been added with hand embroidery using vintage cream silks.
 The hanger has been stiffened on the reverse with the addition of decovil light fabric and then covered with a vintage 1960's fabric.

A vintage white button has been sewn at the top and attached to it is a pale pink coloured ribbon.

I have made the ribbon quite long so that if wished a bow could be formed.

Measures approx. - 9.5/3.7"cms x 5.cms/2"
 These unique hangers/tags can be used in a variety of places in the home, hanging on a wall, door or drawer knob. They could decorate your bag or used as a tag, personalise a special gift. the uses are endless.
This will come packed neatly in a box which makes it ideal for a gift.

An ideal Christmas gift.
