Hello my friends!

Well I’ve done it!!

I’ve finally finished my Wonderland flowers jacket embroidery (happy dance).

It looks so much better than I thought it would now that I’ve finally washed away the stick and stitch paper, I did have a moment were I panicked and got scared of rinsing it incase the printed design underneath ran into the threads and stained the lighter colours – which thankfully it didn’t!

In the end I decided to create an arch of bread-and-butterflies to just ‘finish’ the image. They’re quite funky aren’t they!? I worked all of them at once – all the eyes/all the bodies/all the wings etc.

Now that its finished I literally can’t wait to start wearing it! This jacket has taken a solid nine months of work, I’ve used miles of thread and gone through several needles. But I’m so pleased it’s finally finished and the colours look so much more vibrant now it’s been washed.

Also seeing as I’m going the happiest place on earth this summer I can now take it with me! My brother has even bought me a super cute Wonderland themed pair of ‘Minnie ears’ to wear in the park. As a side note I had no idea about disney ear headbands and I just need them! 

I’ve already got a new project I’m going to start although I’m hoping it won’t take quite as long as this one has!

So that’s a wrap for my denim-jacket-project posts, and a rather labor intensive project complete…I really hope you’ve enjoy following along on this journey. As always thank you so much for reading my friends, and have a lovely week!
