This is great. So creative and a best use of time.
May I ask, what is the material used in making flowers?
It’s felt. It’s a wonderful material and you can make all sorts of things with it. Am making my son’s Halloween costume out of it too!
I’ve never heard of this material before. Can I easily find it?
P.S what is the costume for this Halloween? 🙂
Yes I think so. Its quite common and inexpensive. Should I send some over for you 😉 It’s available in all colors here in Dubai. I’m going to write a post about the costume so keep watching my space!
Ah..that is so kind of you. But I’m here is Pakistan, it’ll be a little hard for you to send material here. Thank you so much for the offer! 🙂
And okay, I’ll keep my eyes open for that ! 😉
The embroidery with Allah’s name is also done on pieces of felt.
Masha Allah, You have done such a tremendous work with it ! 🙂
Thanks. This project took me a month. It’s now hanging in my drawing room.
Just posted it. 🙂
The embroidery was beautiful. So you did that with all felt squares?
Yes I cut the felt into 2.5cm squares and embroidered them. Then I pasted them together to make a collage. It was a bit hard embroidering on such small pieces and also because I don’t understand Arabic but it came out nicely in the end. I have it hanging in my drawing room.
you seemed to overcome the language barrier etc.. lol, it is lovely
thanks!
What an array of talents, praise God.
Thank you, stay Blessed!
🙂 i also left my job 2 months back , and now i am going to an Art school for learning the basic skills of ART AND CRAFT, i am in love with arts. Your work is really good , especially the shopper bag is beautiful.
Thanks, what are you working on these days?
I am going o an ART school 🙂 Blogging and Routine house hold chores.
I left job because i cannot compromise on quality. I may join my professional life again. 🙂
Masha’Allah, I like your blog and your fun costumes. The wall hanging with the Names of Allah is also very nice work! Especially if you don’t understand Arabic, insha’Allah you will receive a double blessing for this effort. I married an Egyptian man and alhamdulillah now I live in Egypt and trying very hard to learn arabic. I look forward to your posts now that I’m following you… if you’d like to read one of my poems, here’s one called, Oh Cairo
Thank you so much for the visit and the follow. Best wishes, Zainab
