Introduction
Making brooches is a lovely way to express your
creativity. All the projects are open to your own
interpretation and I sincerely hope that you have
as much fun making pieces of art to wear as I do.
Very little needs to be purchased to make these
fun brooches, and by asking friends and relatives
all sorts of charms, threads and background
materials can be acquired. Those things that need
to be purchased are widely available through
reputable retail stores and over the internet.
A basic tool kit you will need for most of these
projects includes: felt, scissors, needles (including
a beading needle), sewing and embroidery
threads, and brooch backs.
Note that some experience of free machine
embroidery may be required for some of the
projects in this book.

Try using many different ribbons for a multicoloured effect. If you wish, a garter
can be made from a length of the ribbon and attached around a leg.

The colours you choose for your piece are important to define the mood.
Here, warm oranges and reds evoke an autumnal feel.
