I somehow managed to sit still for a few hours yesterday so today now, I have something interesting to show!
I handpainted an applique and some tiny daisy trim. I believe that trim is left over from my wedding dress which my mother made. Anyway, I sew the little daisies around the heart and then beaded them.
I added some cream colored lace and beaded that with some tiny heart beads. I think they're quartz or some natural stone that were dyed. My friend Lula sent them to me years ago and I've been saving them. I don't know why or for what, I just couldn't bring myself to cut the string and use them. But I knew they would be perfect for this project so I cut the string and sewed some on!
I added sequins and the blue braid as well. I'll probably do some beading on the applique next.
Line up!

some motifs, worked to the bottom first so the border can be my guide.
