Have yourself a steampunk little Christmas

December 9, 2011 by Denise Felton Leave a Comment

Michelle of A Can of Crafty Curiosities created this awesome steampunk ornament. She says,

This one is a series of Steamships that I found on old 18th century drawings. I found this great topographical map fabric and embroidered them on that.  I also found these great brass rings that came in a couple of different sizes. I embroidered the images, then cut it out and stretched it over the brass rings. I then added a little bit of gimp and voila a cute little ornament.

She goes on to show us how to use a brass ring as a foundation. See her tute.
