At CHA in January, I got a roll of this awesome mixed media artist cloth and decided it was time to use it. For today’s post, I stitched up a button flower garden in a matter of minutes!
I had a 5 x 7 black frame so I decided to stitch on a cut 4 x 6 piece of the cloth so that I would have room to mat it with felt.
I used my Laura Kelly buttons from the mixed collection to create the flowers and embroidery floss in two shades of green to make the stems and leaves as well as to attach the button stack flowers.
I cut a 5 x7 piece of beautiful blue felt from Kunin Felt and used it as the mat. I stitched the artist cloth right to it with black floss.
Ta Da! I think it is fun and so easy. This would be a great activity for kids to make a gift for Mother’s Day!
Cheers,
Laura
