Multimedia brooches

A few more of the pins I have been working on recently 

Started out by creating a sheet of fabric from scraps stitched onto a light weight interfacing

sewn on to denim... brushed out black yarn was lightly layered on topped with tulie netting covering... a cut sequin and metallic embroidery floss for the buckle and band, added a trim of beads after adding the felt backing and pin finding.. 

 The witch's boot was made using the same sheet of fabric made from scraps... denim, felt, beads and pin finding

The haunted Mansion started out with the same base fabrics, I added more embroidery to this one making a full moon, bats, windows, door .. added brushed yarn for a hazy night look, plus a bit of green for foliage.. also covered with tulie

The pumpkin is mixed colors of brushed out yarn to give it more depth.. trimmed  with gold cording, highlighted with an autumn palette of beads.

A couple of freeform ghosts  

This one's eyes can turn

Been wanting to do a few of these..

7 owl beanie knit pattern

As long time owl fan myself, when a friend asked me to design a hat that had owls in a beanie style I had to give it a go... I made one for them, a few others for sell at market.. had it all typed out but didn't get the yardage.. made another .. sold as soon as it hit the table.. that is when I recalled I still needed my gauge...

I had made them using different yarns, all claiming to be the same weight but you know how that goes...

So I started over... got my gauge and yardage for the yarn it's made in now lol..

hope you enjoy the pattern
