Profile cushions

 

Following on from the thread drawn Picasso faces, I have made some profile cushions!

Something a little different and not for everyone, which is my stuff all over!

I looked for some like this and couldn't find any, so had a go at making them.

Sewn artwork brooches

 

New Year (thank goodness) new makes!

Here are a few sewn Picasso artwork brooches just in time for Valentines Day!

They are mainly of Dora Maar, with her hand included.

Available now in my Etsy store {here}

Sewn Picasso line drawings

Something new, but still free motion sewn!
These are sewn faces of Picasso's line drawings from around 1952.
They are more basic than the detailed Picasso artworks I have been sewing lately. Some are framed and some are available just as they are, for you to frame yourself.
{{Available from today over here}}

Face make up bags

A face to keep your face in!!
Here are some free motion sewn face make up bags.
They are repurposed from a vintage linen tablecloth.
Let me know if you would like one, or I have a couple of other ones made from an embroidered vintage white linen too!

Vintage buckle Frida brooches

Something a bit different, with repurposing some vintage buckles!

I have turned them in to frames for the little sewn Frida faces.

They have stiffened felt backings and a brooch backing.

I have had these vintage buckles for quite a few years now 

and so this is so wonderful to be able to use them in some way!

Over in the new Etsy shop now :: alittlevintagedoll

Iris

These are tiny little sewn faces, where I've tried to get the look of Iris Apfel.

I might make the glasses a little bigger next time, but they're getting there!

They are one of a kind and come in a fabric covered box.

((Available over here))

Blue

This custom order was something a bit different.

I was asked to make a textile art of a book cover for the author's birthday!

I used free motion sewing and also fabric paint for the leaves, eyes and lipstick.

It was alot of fun to do, but very time consuming!

Faces

Trying something new here with the free motion sewing!

Faces sewn into clutch bags. 

Some are made from felted wool rug for a different look entirely.

There are a few in the shop now, 

and hoping to make more soon!xx
