brooches and bits and pieces.

I am today adding some brooches which I made with the embellishing machine a while ago. These and the bits and pieces are all I have done so far , The idea came form Stitch magazine and some of the bits and pieces are from  Jennie Rayment instructions,     wonder woman, I find her so inspiring and her enthusiasm is contagious.

  Some of these bits are bag ornaments  they are based on Jennie`s flowers and my fiddling about.but others just sit in a bowl on the dining room table.


these are the brooches based on a project from stitch magazine.


As you can see these are not done on the machine,  just scraps of fabric made into three and four petal flowers from one of Jennie`s books.

Jennie Rayment is always full of new idea how to manipulate fabric into fantastic quilts and ornaments. I can see you have enjoyed making these pieces.

So pretty! Love all your brooches and especially love the 2nd set. What a terrific way to use up pieces of scrap fabrics. Looks like you had a lot of fun making these.

Your brooches look terrific! Are you wearing one on a spring jacket? They would make a lovely gift too.

These are really pretty. I especially like the brooches. They might look good on hair clips too.
