Stitch a horseshoe
Download and print the templates for this project. Use the horseshoe outline to cut two from card and two from wadding. Use an acid-free glue stick to adhere each piece of wadding to each cardboard horseshoe and set aside.
Cut two more horseshoes from pale pink floral fabric, but allow an extra 1cm all the way around. Cut rose heads from printed fabric, a piece of pieces of table linen onto the silk dupion, so it borders the embroidered flowers. Arrange all of these pieces onto one of the pale pink horseshoe shapes, then stitch into place using dark pink thread to add depth to the roses. Iron on the reverse.
Lay the finished front horseshoe wrong side up and place one of the card horseshoes on top, wadding side down.
