The   EGA/ Embroidery Guild of America , Covered Bridge Chapter , of which I am member, decided to  have some fun making a Needle cushion Doll.

The Ceramic doll came from a Dollar Store and my doll was "dressed"  over her stuffed  pettycoat with  a layer of Tuille,  heat treated Angelina Fiber fabric and Patchwork of various polyester fabrics  which were joined together with a textile tool that resembles a wood burning tool. Her Wings were done on my Bernina 730, free motion embroidery with wire edged satin stitch  - her base was finished in black lacy polyester craft felt which was "abused" with the heated textile tool resulting in a lacy pattern,   really cool !

Evening and long trips by car are for KNITTING

These Capelets will make wonderful Christmas Gifts including one for myself
