Inspiration: embroidered softies

June 10, 2008 by Denise Felton 2 Comments

 

skulls

I’m fascinated and charmed by Day of the Dead paraphernalia, so I was totally arrested in my blog-hopping by this image of sugar-skull softies designed and embroidered by Alicia Traveria. If you’re not content to enjoy her images and you’re not up to trying your hand at something similar, you can pick up one of Alicia’s originals at her Etsy shop. And be sure to check her blog for other knock-out softie designs.
