DESIGN CONCEPTS -
FREE FORM EMBROIDERY
I CHOSE TO WORK WITH THE SILK ORGANZA BECAUSE I LOVE ITS ORGANIC LUSTER AND VERSATILITY. USING FREE FORM EMBROIDERY INTRIGUED ME BECAUSE IT CREATES THIS LACE-LIKE FABRIC AND I WANTED TO ELEVATE THE FABRIC BY GIVING IT THIS EFFECT USING LIGHT BLUE AND YELLOW THREADS.
2 2X3 YARDS FINISHED PANELS FOR PANTS
THE ORGANZA IS VERY THIN SO I HAD TO USE A WATER SOLUBLE STABILIZER SO THE ORGANZA WOULDN'T GET CAUGHT OR PUCKER. IT WOULD CAUSE THE ORGANZA TO SHRINK WHEN IT GETS WET SO I HAD TO SEW IT ON LARGER SECTIONS AND THEN CUT OUT MY PATTERN PIECES. THE OVERALL PROCESS WOULD TAKE ABOUT A WEEK TO FINISH A PANEL SINCE I DID TIGHT LOOPS WITH 2 DIFFERENT COLORS.
