Wedding Invites

I designed and made the wedding invitations for my cousin, based on a selection of fabrics she had chosen.

 We agreed on making cream invites for day guests and pink for evening guests.

She specifically wanted to use the rose detail of the fabric design, and so I scaled the invitations up to do this, and also make the text a comfortable size to stitch. 
The fabric invites were then scanned to produce the printed invites, which meant the couple were able to frame the originals as a keep sake.

All the text is hand stitched and decoration is appliqued.
(there is a faint line across these images from where they have been scanned!)
