I've moved onto the next step with my felted seahorses, mounting them on a background. I used my dumfing machine (that's an embellisher for those unfamiliar with this wipso and twiglet term ;) ) to add merino wool and some other bits n pieces to a piece of cotton fabric.
I then moved over to my sewing machine and added some bubbles and texture lines. I started adding some french knots and tiny beads the other night, then realised I'd struggle to sew it onto the background with them there so stopped!
I've placed a second seahorse behind a rectangular mount. This actually took longer to do as I felted and sewed this piece without an embroidery hoop. Now to work out how to attach it to the mount! Any tips gratefully received :)
I'm not selling them framed, just thought I'd try one in a frame to see how it looked. I can't decide which type people will prefer though, the funkiness of the embroidery frame or the safety of being able to put the image behind glass. What do you reckon?
