Flutterby No.3 – Original Artwork
£150.00
A one-of-a-kind fantasy butterfly from my Flutterby series, hand-stitched on sheer bridal organza using a mix of thread painting and goldwork techniques. Shades of blue and violet shimmer through its wings, accented with sequins and silver purl wire for a touch of light and magic. The transparency of the fabric gives the piece a floating, ethereal quality - like catching a glimpse of something otherworldly in motion.
This piece is the third in my ongoing “Flutterby” embroidery series - an exploration of fantasy butterflies and the quiet magic they might carry.
Each butterfly in the series is imagined as a creature from another world: familiar in form, yet touched by something dreamlike. This one is stitched by hand on a sheer piece of bridal organza, giving it the illusion of hovering within its frame. The wings are brought to life through delicate thread painting in shades of blue and violet, with subtle goldwork details that shimmer as the light shifts. Sequins and silver smooth purl wire add an extra layer of depth and texture.
The Flutterby series began as a way to merge my love of realism and fantasy, using embroidery to create creatures that feel both natural and impossible. Each butterfly is a one-of-a-kind original, designed to stand on its own as a small, intricate artwork.
This piece is perfect for anyone who loves the meeting point of nature and imagination - a detailed, hand-stitched fragment of a world where even the smallest things can feel a little enchanted.
This flutterby is in a 5" faux wood embroidery hoop and is intended to be kept in the hoop and hung up for display. Materials used include bridal organza fabric, ribbon, sequins, smooth purl goldwork wire, and metallic, holographic and stranded cotton threads.
Original, one of a kind hand embroidery which can be hung up to add a little enchantment to any room.
