Making IT Up

So yesterday I asked about transferring a drawing to the velvet in order to embroider a design. You guys came up with some really good links! Thank you. Deanna offered these two (link one, link two), both of which have been bookmarked-great resources.

But you know, part of this project is about pushing past my own expectations. In a Rockstar like way. I mean, What Would Janis do? I started thinking this through in light of thinking about using a tear away stabilizer. But then I thought, It almost feels like the velvet gives no relief. Then I remembered the links Ricé had on her blog a few weeks back. And I cooked up a half baked idea. I hope it works.

And Lyric is doing something that Really Works. Check it out.

I have been known to use a Micron or Pitt Pen, but I didn't think it would work on velvet. Don't you just love what Lyric is creating. Love the stitched bird. What would Janis do? xo
