Has been busy making more embroidered fascinators....

Q. Do you know what these are??? I didn't till a few weeks ago!

A. Flower making tools! They help you to shape silk fabric into 3d petal shape.... and they are wonderful!

I have treated myself to some new flower making tools, which help to shape fabric into a 3D petal shape.
So instead of using wire to shape my petals, I can shape into a far softer petal shape.... and I think the embroidered rose petals are simply beautiful!
 

I think this sweet little fascinator, in 100% brown silk looks so vintage.... I love it!

And my new "Handmade by Heidi" labels.... add the perfect finishing touch!

You can find it in my Folksy Shop.... or I can make it in your own colour to match your outfit... (I have a supplier of over 160 colour shades of silk... so I'm sure we can find just what you need!). 

New personalised wedding sampler....

This is a beautiful personalised wedding sampler the happy couple will save for years! It is embroidered on ivory silk with ivory thread, and personalised with the couples name,date and location of the wedding. It is housed in a deep white framed, and because of it's neutral colour scheme, it will fit in with any style of interior design theme.
It was very difficult to photograph, and with the dark daylight at the moment, this might be the best I can do for a while.

It will be on the website from tomorrow and is a great unusual gift for the wedding couple.
