Pattern i77, CENTER STAGE by Di van Niekerk for Inspiration Studios, Featuring Ribbon Embroidery
Wistful silk print with dainty ribbon embroidered ballerina and romantic bouquets.
Inspirations Studios describe this project:
"Poised for her encore performance, a dainty ballerina adjusts her pointe shoes, surrounded by romantic bouquets from her adoring audience on this wistful silk print.
A profusion of lustrous silk ribbons in muted shades of rose, wisteria and palest pink are embroidered on the bouquets and tutu.
Tiny beads form the leotard and delicate, handmade paper arum lilies highlight the upper bouquet.
Worked over an original artwork printed onto fabric, (available to purchase at sokestyle.com), this stunning scene would be perfect to decorate a young girl's room."
This booklet includes complete instructions and full size pattern. 11 pages, full color illustrations and a list of required supplies are all included. The project uses a variety of solid and variegated colors stranded cottons from DMC and hand-dyed silk ribbon, 4mm and 6mm organza.
