Split Stitch Owl Design

 

I recently had a chance to help a friend with a project for an upcoming ceremony. The project involved split stitching on velvet, which I had never done before.

The texture and pile of the fabric made stitching very different to stitching on cotton or linen, and it took some adjusting to. 

If you are planning an embroidery project on velvet fabric, I would recommend allowing a bit of extra time.


It was a bit of a rush but I am quite happy with how it turned out. The lovely design is by Sir Eva and the owls will be cut out and appliqued onto a garment.
