Alpine Violet Heart

"Alpine" Heart made with vintage sheet music titled "Alpine Violet". The substrate used was 1/4 inch foam core. I finished the edges with scalloped aluminum tape that had alcohol ink applied to it. I printed a vintage image of violets on a transparency sheet and finished it with a blanket stitch. The vintage brooch on the left side is a violet petit point.

Reading the letter - embroidered crazy patchwork heart.

Embroidered the crazy quilt patchwork with various stitches and beads. Incorporated many pieces from vintage handkerchiefs such as the border around lady image.

I did four of these with a basic transfer and embellished each one differently. Will post at a later date the other three. Finished the edge with a daisy trim which has a violet center. The jewelry was given to me to use for my creativity. Printed the violet on a transparency overlay which features a blanket stitch edge. CLICK ON IMAGE TO SEE DETAILS.
