Zestaw do haftu koralikowego – broszka „Skrzydło”

“Wing” is a wing-shaped brooch in silvery beads and dark blue crystals, with feathers below.

What the picture shows

The wing is spread and slightly curved, as if in motion. The upper edge is worked in dark blue and graphite microbeads, and the feathers lighten towards their tips into silver and pearl. The rows follow the line of each feather, so single quills read clearly instead of one flat mass. Bugle beads of two kinds mark the long flight feathers, while bicones and drops scattered along the top edge catch the light. Pale pink decorative feathers on a ribbon are attached below and carry the shape downwards. Inside the outline the canvas is stitched densely, then cut out.

The finished piece is 73×63 mm without the feathers, and the kit holds 22 bead colours. The work is of average difficulty because of the many small details on the quills. The brooch takes the clasp from the kit and looks best on firm fabric — a coat, a jacket or a denim jacket. The design is printed straight onto the canvas, so there are no squares to count: the colour you need shows under the needle.
