Cactus Beauty

Created By Janet
Janet stitched cactus designs on her Brother PR600, then made the designs three-dimensional with embroidered flowers! She writes... "My brother lives in Arizona and for his birthday I decided to embroider him a couple of your cactus in a basket designs. I did a little something different by embroidering them on burlap and making them 3D. I embroidered a couple of the flowers separately on tear away stabilizer and solvy then glued them to the finished embroidery. I also put them in barn wood frames to give them a real rustic look." These are gorgeous! The burlap is perfect for the southwestern theme, and the 3D effect is fabulous. Thanks for sharing this excellent project with us, Janet. And see this Fabrics 101 article for lots of tips about embroidering on burlap. FAVORITE
