Miriam 's #4Orange Blue and Purple Pallet




I had some difficulty deciding what to do for this challenge. I rarely buy purple or orange fabric. I used my embellisher and worked on Irish Tweed fabric for the base of my piece. I love to work with sheers and tulles and so combined them with the tweed. I must confess I am not very keen on the background but do love the flower. I used lots of stitching and beading to finish it off.

  8. You did a great job. Your flower is kind of what I envisioned, but I went with a safer technique for me. I think your background really sets of your flower.
