When I first found smooth purl (zardosi thread) in my small town a few years back, I was so
excited that I decided to experiment with it. The results were these flowers
which I created from various stitches.I had only a small amount of the thread
then, so I was somewhat stingy and kept recycling it for the various flowers
that you can see below.In the end, fix it onto the fabric using a thin layer of
fabric glue.
This is a twisted
lazy daisy stitch petals.

daisy stitch variation.

ReplyDeleteYou made beautiful flowers with the thread. I had a little amount of this thread too but it was too delicate to use and kept breaking a lot while turning or may be I had very less patience at that time.
ReplyDeleteYes Preeti, patience is really important when working with zardosi thread.
