Its a combination of felt applique and embroidery. It was looking kind of bland, so I went back and outlined everything in black, giving it a fun, cartoony look.
The little trailer is all embroidery, and is a cherished memory of a special picnic in Ohio (that’s a tiny Ohio map dangling at the bottom). It doubles as my monthly state ornament, and will move to my tree at Christmas.
This is so wonderful and creative!! You put so much thought and freshness into your creative projects, I always look forward to seeing what you’ll make next!
I puzzled over how to do the tree foliage, then someone posted some 3D flowers in the Stitchalong, and I looked up the technique. It’s two or three rows of blanket stitch worked on each other, and looks like crochet.
Hmm, probably could have crocheted the leafiness, I’ll have to keep that in mind!
