Lilac garden felt brooch by Feltissimo



 
 
My inspiration for for this pretty felt brooch was a country garden.

I make all of my felt by hand, using Merino wool fibres. By using the wet felting method, I get the the wool fibres to entangle together to create a firm felt fabric. The machine stitching I have used on the felt brooch has raised some areas creating small flower beds which I filled with embroidery. A variety of stitches were used using vintage recycled silk threads. Further texture was added by using 1930’s rococco ribbon flowers. I also added on this brooch two other lilac vintage flowers, to make this felt brooch unique.

Measurements - approx. 8.5cms/3.34" deep x 8.5cms/3.34" wide at the widest points.

This pretty felt brooch will make a wonderful addition to a jumper, cardigan, dress or blouse. It would also look great on a bag.

 The customer will receive the felt brooch packaged securely in a box. I will then place the box in a plastic postage bag to keep dry. Feltissimo has many years experience of shipping items. I pride myself in ensuring that all items arrive at their destination in good condition.

Unique felted and embroidered brooch with 1930s rococo ribbon trim - Autumnal colours



A pretty handmade felt brooch/pin made from three layers of merino wool fibres in shades of blue, aubergine and green .The green areas are raised which have been enhanced with machine stitching. The lower green area has beautiful 1930's rococo ribbon embellishments. Embroidery in shades of yellow and pale blue make a wonderful textured effect.



In order to make the brooch firm, a layer of Decovil 1 iron on interfacing as been sandwiched between the back woolen fabric layer and the front. A secure pin has been sewn onto the back.

Measurements - approx. 9cms/3.5" deep x 7.5cms/3" wide.


 The brooch comes attached to card and in a cello fronted bag. The postage bag is plastic so as it doesn't get damp in transit.

An ideal gift item, that is if you can part with it.

Experience in shipping world wide.
