Kit de broche à broder de perles « Mriya, l'indestructible »

““Mriya” is indestructible” shows an aeroplane in blue and yellow, caught in flight.

What the picture shows

The plane is turned slightly away, so both the fuselage and both wings are visible. The upper half of the body is worked in blue and dark blue microbeads, the lower in yellow and gold, and the border between them runs as a straight line along the whole side. The wings are broad, filled with rows of fine beads that run from root to tip and stress the span. A hemisphere and bicones mark the engines, and small pale stones the windows. The tail is raised, with two pearls and a leaf. The kit holds 21 bead colours, and the bead count is modest at 354. Inside the outline the canvas is stitched densely.

The finished piece is 72×63 mm. The level is average and the work is fairly quick because of the small bead count. The brooch takes the clasp from the kit and stands out on plain fabric. The finished embroidery is cut out along the outline, the back is closed with a base, and the clasp from the kit is fixed to it. The stones and findings are already matched to the design, so nothing else needs to be bought.
