This is a continuation of two previous posts about the making of the Green Butterfly Lady. I started making flowers and leaves out of some of the fabric that I bought and some that was in my stash. When making the flowers from the organza and organza ribbon, I placed two layers of fabric between two layers of Solvy, drew the design with permanent marker, and stitched around the edges with a tight zig-zag (2 stitch width; .5 stitch length).
After they were stitched, they were cut out and soaked in warm water to dissolve the stabilizer. Here's the pile of the flowers and leaves.
And here is the face with the flowers approximately where they will be placed.
I think it's turning out OK so far. I hope you think so too!
