PRELIMINARY FELT EMBROIDERY
BEGINNING 3-D ART
wool felt pieces, perle cottons, embroidery & crewel needles w/ button & bead embellishments
My young ones are sewing & embroidering!!!
Another global skill,
conquered!
The kids learned 10 decorative stitches to put together these sweet little pieces,
along with sewing on a button and a few beads.
Of course they practiced learning on another felt piece,
then they worked out a design that would incorporate all 10 of these stitches.

We all agreed that junior Lynette Lee had made the class favorite.
With junior Margaret Yiu close behind.
We also loved the delicate stylings of senior Sarah Woo.
And we adored junior Jillian Morris's clever bicycle.
I was particularly fond of junior Rachel Kannampuzha's booklet
that opened up to reveal her "Under the Sea" theme.
Way to conquer just one more global skill.
Whoa!!
Kudos to Lynnette for the dimensionality in her piece, but you probably guessed that Sarah's underwater stitches and Rachel's sea creatures would catch my eye!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so beautiful! I love that so many endeavored to stick with the satin stitch for filling larger spaces. :-)
