Zestaw do haftu koralikowego – broszka „Lekki żaglowiec”

“Light sailboat” is a sailing boat brooch with a red and white sail and a silvery hull.

What the picture shows

The boat leans over as if running before the wind. The sail is split diagonally into red and white bands: the red ones are worked in dense beads, the white in clear and pearl, so the stripes shine differently. The hull is laid in silvery beads and bugle beads, which give the even horizontal line of the gunwale. The mast is thin, only a few beads, with a small gold sequin flag at the top. A few blue drops below the hull read as a wave. The kit holds 22 bead colours. Inside the outline the printed canvas is stitched densely, then cut out.

The finished piece is 60×72 mm. The level is average: the stripes on the sail must lie evenly, or the sense of taut cloth is lost. The brooch takes the clasp from the kit; no frame or mount is part of this design. The kit holds about 519 beads in 22 colours, so the work usually spreads over a few evenings.
