Doodle Page - Insects

The next doodle page arrived a day or two before my Mum’s birthday. One of her gifts was tied with a butterfly ribbon. Mum kindly gave me a length to use on Isabell’s insect page.


I added a few beads to create their bodies.


I wanted the butterflies to look like they were in flight so I distorted the ribbon and stitched beads under some of their wings so that they would be raised from the page.


Happy Stitching

They are indeed flying! So clever to put the beads underwing and to snag some ribbon from your Ma...I bet she'll give you the rest some day if you're a good girl...
