CQ Detail 207

Detail:

This block is very difficult to divide up into individual details so I am tackling areas at a time.

The most noticeable thing is a large cluster of vintage buttons but the detail I wanted to point to is two lines of up and down feather stitch one of which, runs along seam the edge of piece 4.

The seam that runs along piece 4  is covered with some edging and then buttons but I also added some embroidery. I then tucked some bugle beads into the the forks of  the up and down feather stitch.

Thread:
