Embroidered and Felted Recycled Bookmark Meadow von Lynwoodcrafts

Shared by Lynwoodcrafts in the Jewellery


Product Description:

Meadow flowers hand-embroidered against a felted meadow background decorate this pretty book mark which is finished with two long plait 'tails' in matching yarns and threads.

Sky blue wool fibers have been felted to a background of kunin felt (produced from recycled plastic bottles. A wide variety of yarn snippets, carefully collected from other yarn projects, have been added to represent the meadow grasses. Stitching in fine cotton has been added to the sky and meadows to 'stabilise' the felting. The book mark is edged in blanket stitch threads to match the areas of the design. Wildflowers - daisies, yarrow and clover, have been added in simple embroidery stitches
