The Stave


The stave of the fan is finished.  A piece of felt is appliqued in place and then six strands of Eterna silk are laid over the top.  The flower is added with Kreinik and then the centers filled with chips of check purl.  Next pearl purl is pulled and stitched around the outside.  Last, a piece of gold kid is appliqued in place and then Kreinik is couched around it.

Very elaborate and very pretty! I loved Eterna silks by the way.

It is elaborate but good techniques. Eterna silk was a great theard and maxmimum sheen!
