- I now embroider the 9 rings of Saturn. For that, I cut circles in my paper like I did to do the shape of my planet (you can see my previous post for that). I use one strand of my embroidery threads to have a result as delicate as possible.
For the sixth step :
- I choose a selection of 62 beads for the 62 moons of Saturn, then I embroider them around my planet.
I won’t show you the final result right now because I want to keep to surprise for my customer ^^
The material : - a hoop ; linen ; felt ; scissors (for fabric, threads and paper) ; water soluble fabric ; paper ; embroidery threads ; pins ; needles (for threads and beads) ; beads; pen ; a compass.
First steps : - I do the drawing of my planet and it’s 9 rings with a pen and the compass on a paper, then I transfer it on water-soluble fabric with a pen. After that I cut the circle of my planet in the paper and from my water-soluble fabric. - I cut a circle of felt the size of my hoop for later. I stretch the fabric in the hoop, keeping it overhang of minimum 1cm. - I place my paper and my water-soluble fabric on my fabric with pins. - I select the embroidery threads that I will need for my embroidery. - I start to embroider the outlines of my embroidery on my water-soluble fabric.
