BEADING SAMPLE II

The beading sample for the Wedding dress is almost done. I’m satisfied with the beading; but not with the bias strips, I don’t think I like them as much. I might play with it a bit more to see if I will use them at all.




Here is a pic of the appliqué petal on the flower.
To make the appliqué petals, after they were embroidered the petals were glue on the back to give them body. After the glue had dried, the petals were cut out and the edge sewn to a very fine wire.


The petals were appliquéd on top of the already beaded flower. This gave me the 3-dimensional “Feel” that I was looking for. I’m very glad to see how it came out.

After seeing the beading and knowing that I’m satisfied with it, I think I will go ahead and start working on the dress.

Cruz.- gracias por mostrar todo este "trabajo". La verdad es que para mí es algo alucinante. A veces he observado este tipo de bordados intentando buscar alguna explicación. Yo creo que la única palabra para describir este trabajo es: ARTE, como todo lo relacionado con la costura.

Un abrazo desde Barcelona,

Paco
