Vintage Fabric Brooch No.4

Here is my latest brooch made using some toile de jouy with a frill of vintage handmade lace. On top I have stitched a heart in a Cath Kidston stripe with a smaller heart of vintage french linen and a little bit of vintage embroidery from an old doily at the bottom. The tail is made from wide satin ribbon with pink ribbons and pearly buttons and pearly beads to finish off.
All my brooches are individual and hand stitched. This one is 13.5 cms long overall. Please click on the photo to enlarge and take a closer look.

Vintage Fabric Brooches

This little brooch is 14 cm long to the end of the little felt hearts. It is made with some vintage embroidered cream fabric which is very fine and may have been intended for a wedding dress a long time ago. On top of that is a heart of cotton provencal print and a little cream cotton heart. I have added some pretty little beads in the colours of the print and a little pearly button. The tail is of black silk velvet and two fine ribbons with felt hearts at the ends.

All my brooches are totally individual and hand stitched. Please click on photos to enlarge and see the detail.
