Over the past two weeks i have been working on A2 size samples. This is one of them i used the theme of WW1 and made some small bombs to do this i used some of the fabric i tye-dyed and cut into circles i then hand stitched around them used green thread i chose green as i links in with my colour scheme. To finish it off i used cream ribbon and used red wool to french knot some shading into the bombs. To create the words "Tick" and "Bang" i used red wool and i couched then onto the fabric using a needle and green thread also to link in with my colour scheme. To add extra detail i coffee stained around the edges, around the bombs and around the wording to make it stand out. I like this as i makes the sample look old and links in with WW1.
