These are little butterflies, made of scrap fabric. They started with fabric rectangles of about 4.5"X5 there are loads of tutorials online. A pretty quick make, I’ve no idea what I’ll do with them, but I guess they’d work as a broach (is that how you spell that word? It looks weird)
Yes, a brooch. That’s what I made from the one fabric butterfly I folded. I pinned it to a bag as an embellishment. I swear I had to make that thing 5 or 6 times to get it looking right. You did a beautiful job with these. They would make amazing abandonable art.
Really pretty! I love them both. And I googled broah/brooch, because why not, and discovered that:
Since the 13th century, both brooch and broach have been used to refer to the jewelry, so castigating those who write about wearing broaches is quite unfair.
But of course they do have different meaning
We can summarize all this easily then: use brooch for the jewelry, and broach as a verb for introducing topics. Pronounce them the same (or not).
Ok, done, sorry for the extra info which is most likely not needed XD But the butterflies are still cool
Some words can mean so many different things, I am a member of several different groups and a word meaning something in one group has a completely different meaning in the other, I just have to stop myself from snickering when it’s a funny word XD
