After completing the ruched brooch I made with supplies from my Dad’s shed, I still had some scraps of the muslin left. Inspired by the Casalguidi workshop, I decided to add some random pulled work to one of the scraps using four sided stitch and eyelets.
That reminded me that I hadn’t rusted anything for a while and I had some gorgeous bits of rusty iron just begging to be wrapped. I think those big spirals may be part of an old clock mechanism.
After a week or so outside in the alternate pouring rain and baking sun of a typical British summer:
Lots of possibilities!
I’ve also done a little more of the blue work piece and the second shaded flower is nearly completed.
Getting there slowly…
Your creations are so lovely!
Very inspirational! You will be able to make something stunning with your rusted fabric
Love the old clock springs – looking forward to seeing what you do with the cloth!
Fantastic
I absolutely love your flowers! So far I’ve read only this post but I think I’ll stay for longer 🙂 Yesterday I officially started my adventure with blogging and, despite being a complete beginner, I am sure I’ll love it. Thank you for inspiring me!
Something so lovely abut the colour of rust.
