Desert Turquoise


My latest project is the Desert Turquoise or DT. Again even more techniques were learned. It is so amazing to me how the fabric takes on a totally different look when "punched". It actually makes a satin look like stones. It is fun to watch that transformation. I had the best time making the fringe from different type yarns - you cannot always find the right color trim so you have to make your own. The easiest way is with a fringe maker. I think I got a little carried away with the fringe but I loved the way it added so much to the pillow. I am looking forward to my next project which I will be sure and share with you.
