Modern Hand Embroidery: Mystical Upcycled Frog

Everything except the needle and hoop involved in sewing my frog came from deep diving into charity shop craft sections. I love visiting charity shops whenever I can …even when I’m travelling here in Australia or overseas. The design came from a half completed copyright free adult colouring book, the beads from a little packet of odd bits and pieces, the fabric from a bundle of unwanted quilting pieces, the threads are odds and ends of DMC, Semco and some unknown brands, the sequins from another packet containing hundreds of old sequins and buttons. I love the challenge of turning the seemingly unwanted into something exciting and new!
