    you can do it, I just used the fusable web and a zigzag stitch. the crystals were with the hot fix wand very cheap I got it at pat catans for 2.97 and the bag of crystals were 2.99 and there were 1000 pieces in the bag. Found and old brooch, and stuck it on. Cutting out the pieces is what took the longest. I used an applique sheet, think thats what you call it. and adhered all the pieces together before putting it on the background fabric.

    This is gorgeous. I'm surprised you got away with taking a photo. My sister got in trouble for doing a sketch at a craft festival.

    Most of the booths were very good about that, there was only one that asked me not to. The festival was from the county living magazine. Amazing!! Hope they have there again next year.

    Wow what a work of art, how did you get the "puffy" look. What a great piece.
