Good morning everyone, how are you doing today?
Hope this post finds you all well!
Today's post is about scraps and boy do I have a lot of them! These are all scraps from my hand dyed fabric, they were some where in a pile and I decided to challenge myself and use them.
Now I have to find a way to put them together as a wall hanging and have the inchies dangle on the bottom.

The inchies do need embellishment first, so that's the part I still have to finish..before getting it together..lol. ( you can take that either way..lol)
The strips were torn and then stitched onto the background, then free motion stitched with swirls. To get some more dimension, I stitched some pieces on top of that. The butterflies were left over embroidery from my embroidery machine ( as you know which does not live here anymore).
Hand stitching and embroidery, some beads were added on top of some lace.

Well this is what I have been up to this weekend...rain the whole way..bleeh and cold too!
Sunshine right now..so up and away into the yard to see if I can repair some damage that the hail storm made on Friday! Hail as big as dice and bigger..so much for my flowering plants!
Everyone have a great and wonderful day!!
Hug,
Andrea.

Wonderful use of "scraps", if there really are such a thing! Can't wait to see it all together.
I need to send you about 50pounds of scraps I can't bear to throw away.
If it wasn't for the awful cost of postage........ai yi yi!
