Eyeball Embroidery



I  embroidered an eyeball using different fabrics and thread. I used calico as my background fabric and drew on the stitch line. I chose a variety of fabrics, denim for the pupil, a blue organza I dyed myself for the iris and red felt for the veins. I thought about using this piece as a badge or a feature. Im still not sure if this is the way I want to take my ideas but I did enjoy making this and will definitely use this in future projects.

I then thought about a skort so this is my idea to start it being comfortable for everyone to be ok weather it be trousers, dress or skirt. I will look into this more as I grow as a designer  I added a shirt with pointed shoulders then for fun a tongue and eyes tie.
