LIME RIOT: Wee Bee Badge

Wee Bee Badge

Monday, April 30, 2012

We have been having so much fun in the felt badge swap over on Craftster. There have been some truly awesome badges created. The gallery is filled with felt goodies ranging from VW busses, to zombie bull dogs and even an opera singing ear of corn! I can't wait to get the next round up and running.

This is the badge I created for lindyv. She and I have been in loads of swaps together but were never partnered up. It was great to finally get to craft with her! She had a cute bee pincushion on her wish list that inspired this design.

It was made with wool-blend felts and mostly stitched with 1 strand of DNC embroidery floss. The black details on the bee were done with 3 strands of floss because I wanted them to pop a bit more. The two badges are attached with a thin satin ribbon.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you all have a good week!
