Craft Night- heirloom pictures

We are making heirloom picturesAnother fun night with friends and neighbors... and Projects. The above picture is what we were trying to achieve. You print out a picture on fabric.
Then you get all sorts of fabric and lace and jewels and ribbons and figure out your placement.
and then you start over again and find just the right match.
You sew pieces together
and then you can add items to glue on, or sew on yourself or applique or embroider....
and your final outcome is a cool, one of a kind heirloom picture. If you put it in a shadow box you can add misc. trinkets!
It was fun AND creative!
