It´s finished! And by it I mean the felt embroidering I started here. Pattern of embroidering changed a bit along the way when I found a volume of an old Finnish crafting magazine (Omin käsin) from flea market. Magazines were from the year 1938 and one of them contained a great felt embroidery pattern (below). Lucky me!
To duplicate the pattern from the magazine I needed some tissue paper. You can also use parching paper or some other see through paper.
Then I cut out the pattern and pinned it to a piece of felt. Felt is easier to cut with small and sharp scissors.
I did some "sketching" to find a place for every piece.
When all the flowers and leaves had found their place I pinned them to the sweater. The flowers were easily attached by stitching. With every stich I slipped a yellow seed bead to the thread.
Then it was time for the leaves and stems. They are attached the same way as the flowers.
And voilá!
