Today on C&T’s blog I’m introducing fabric cover-button crafting and have a fun button project for you. My post is #500, how cool is that? Click here to read my post. Stop by and say hello!
Perhaps the hardest part of trying something new is simply knowing where to start. Maybe you have a tube or two of beads on hand and would like to bead on fabric. Find a patterned fabric and follow the design. Try a handful of beads in the centers of some pretty flowers, or sew on beads for dimensional eyes.
On the left is my Calico Kitten block from my Dear Diary Quilt with E-beads for the eyes and nose. On the right is my Laguna Beach brooch. The printed fabric is beaded with size 15 seed beads and tiny garnet gemstone beads following the foliage and waves printed on the fabric.
