I have used the BFC 830 Passion Flower Bag Pattern and designs for my project.
My daughter gave me the pre-made vest for a gift. It is beautifully made and I thought that I could improve it by adding some beautiful machine embroidery to it.That year I was going to a patchwork retreat with lots of like-minded ladies. – Are you like me? Do you like to show off things that you make to people who appreciate the work that goes into it – not like showing my husband – or my work colleagues – even my patchwork friends – who back – even my patchwork friends – who back in 2009 weren’t into machine embroidery. So I decided to make a lovely bag and decorate the vest with the same designs. The colours of the Passion Flower designs were exactly what I had in mind. I must say it was a hit.
I purchased the “Passion Flower Bag” pattern and designs from Suz. I made the bag using cream and brown silk that I had bought from our dear friend Sylvia. The design stitched out beautifully on the silk and the pattern was excellent with very good instructions for making it. I then used the designs to embroider across the back of the vest and over the left shoulder. I was very happy with the finished project and always get a lot of comments when I wear it.
I LOVE this Kay! I wear vests all the time. this is a really stunning outfit. No wonder you get lots of comments! This is a great example of how the designs on our bags don.t have to be used only for bags! Suz
