Brooch 'Ocean Knot' by RitzySwish on Etsy

The circle is created by free-machine embroidery onto vanishing muslin, a fabric that dissolves hence only the stitching remains. Shades of blue and purple have been randomly combined. These are topped with handmade felt (using the wet-felting method) in turquoise tones, with further free-machine embroidery in a silver metallic thread. To finish the circle is hand embroidered with French knots in purple, then embellished with a sprinkling of grey and silver seed beads.
