Welcome back.

Welcome back. - The Legend of Zelda:  Twilight Princess - Princess Zelda
This shot just seems as though it's coming from someone's perspective after just waking up, or maybe Link's after coming back to life after getting clobbered by a difficult boss. Not that those really exist in contemporary Zelda games, except Phantom Hourglass. Leonard said that he had a vision for this shot, and I really didn't know where he was going, but now it all makes sense, and I love how it turned out (run on sentence much?). This is one of my favorite shots from Ohayocon; the inside of my nose has never looked better. XD

That you so much! Umm.. did you use other fabrics for the detail? I saw most of it was beading. I wont be able to do that. >.< And you just dipped the fabric a little bit at a time to get that faded effect? Sorry for all the questions!

All of the designs were embroidered appliques, including the ones I beaded over. The applique served to give the clear seed beads a toned effect. Here's a close-up shot:

Can you see how the dark green fabric is different than the blue fabric? I cut out appliques of the green fabric and attached them the blue fabric by using double-sided interfacing and then embroidered around the design (which is, in essence, a rough definition of an easy-fix applique). Here's a more detailed explanation:

Such an amazing shot!! Just one question, How did you do the colours on the aprin? I have looked at your pics, and it seems to go from purple to light purple, and then white? How did you do that???

Hand-dyed gradient; I dipped the extremely pale blue satin I used for that part of the front panel/apron into navy-blue dye for varying lengths of time to create a light blue -> dark blue effect. I just used plain dye from Joann fabrics and it worked just fine. :3 Just make sure to test out a piece of fabric (that is NOT the garment you will be dying) to see how it absorbs the dye. Also, test out the dye on wet and dry pieces of fabric, as there will be a difference in the way it absorbs. Hope this helps! Good luck! <3
