The People Chose: Embelishments

Welcome to Jo's wonderfully versatile all-purpose SAL! Each month we (aka her faithful readers and participants) pick a new topic, and post the most beautiful pictures we can get away with shoehorning into that topic. The checkin for this is traditionally the first Saturday of the month, but since I am notoriously bad at making it, we don't talk about that kind of stuff here!

At any rate, this month the topic is Embelishments. Not the kind you use to make yourselves look better when telling a tall tale, but the kind we use to make our stitching look even prettier! Beads, charms, lace, whatever we can think of. So as usual, I'm going to take a deep dive into my picture collection and see what I can come up with...







I mostly use beads, but there is the occasional button, charm or sequin too. Even some lace! And what all of them have in common: They are a lot of fun to use!

The dragonfly is stunning! They are all gorgeous, but I especially like the dragonfly.

A beautiful blindfolded warrior holding a scale is impressive.

Love seeing the various ways you've added embellishments! Even a simple button or tiny pompom can make such a nice addition!

Thanks for taking part in The People’s Choice this month. I love the tiny turtle charm you used for Nan’s Garden, he is perfect for the design.
The dragonfly is beautiful too, as are all your projects!
