Feelin’ Crafty – Embroidered Jeans

Embroidered Flower
A little bit of change going on now that I have some free time! I’m feeling a litte burnt out, so I’m going with whatever strikes my fancy…I love the look of fall fashions showing all things embellished, but I refuse to pay $175.00 for a pair of embellliished jeans! I decided to try my hand at a bit of embroidery and beading on an old pair of jean shorts. I used very basic stitches with all 6 strands of embroidery thread (no hoop needed) allows the stitching to go quite fast and covers the areas well. I reinforced the beaded areas by stitching through each bead twice. I like the mix of freehand stitching and beads with basic satin stitched areas. Moving on to a pair of jeans now…
