I have been cleaning out my closet and given clothes away to friends but there were some items I still wanted to do something with. Last year I got a huge amount of textile-materials like embroidery-tread samples, wool, hand painted cloth, weaved cloth, tools, textile-books etc; I had been dreaming of having lots embroidery-colours so I felt really blessed even though it took me 2 months to sort everything out.
So now I am in  the process of pimping up some jackets and T-shirts. I made a skirt from a piece of velvet I bought at the clothes-market some years ago and needed something to go along with it so I found an old pink t-shirt back and decided after seeing a tutorial on doing roses with thin silk-band online ( I couldn't find the website where it came from to give credit to the person who posted it but it is on my Pinterestboard: embroidery techniques)

I have used scraps from the skirt to finish the neckline and will also use that on the sleeves.
I have embroidered it in freestyle. So here is how it looks until now; I will post more photo's when it is finished.
