Embroidered Pin

So you know all that string you bought in junior high school to make friendship bracelets?  Well, did you know that that stuff is good for more than making fanciful bracelets you can give to your BFF?  Yep, it's true!  It's actually called embroidery floss!  Hmm, who knew?  Yeah, thread that stuff through an embroidery (yep, there is a special needle), tie a knot and sew away!  Wow.  The effect on felt is almost like doodling in 3D.  Love it! Here is tonight's creation.  Not the best pic, but it will do.  I am thinking of adding a pin back and adding it to my changeable necklace options!

  2. Very pretty. I love to use embroidery thread accents on felt brooches.
