CQJP Challenge – Block 3

More detail on the March block

The green lace is some cheap polyester that I painted with acrylic paint then heat set it by drying with my hairdryer.

I have attached the lace with straight stitches woven in gold thread and shiny gold beads.  For the herrinbone stitch I used rayon thread and the French knots are three strands of Anchor stranded cotton.

The green material was made to look like drops of rain.  The heart was appliqued onto  the block then I covered the edge with sead beads.
