An elegant, stylised tulip design, inspired by the Art Deco movement. Printed in my studio onto natural tactile fabrics. These panels are ideal for embellishing with stitches, using in patchwork and other craft projects.
The tulips are perfect to add some embroidery to. On the white printed version I added a simple seed stitch with 2 stands of embroidery thread / floss and the flowers bloomed beautifully with a little colour. Choose your favourite shades and you have an easy project to work on in the evenings. I filled half of the panel with stitches and then made it into a zipped purse.
The linen and linen / cotton blend fabrics are best for embroidering into as they have a looser weave and wonderful texture.
