A Day spent in frustration.

Learning to edit my photos has not been a barrel of laughs. Photoshop's free trial didn't download properly and neither did something called "GIMP". When I tried to edit the photo online, I ended up with this.

Not entirely unpleasant but not the standard I am aiming for.

So I took some more pictures when the light was better and downloaded Lightroom. What a frustrating process that is. Not exactly user friendly. However I have managed to cobble together a photo of another or my fabric flower series. The Denim fabric rose. When I searched the internet for "how to make a fabric rose" I came across many tutorials. None of which were satisfying for a perfectionist like me. So I set about to design my own rose. Unlike the fabric daisies, the rose is not especially simple. In fact it takes quite a while and is a little fiddly.

However I believe it is totally worth it. If I were to make my own wedding bouquet then these roses would be perfect.

With cut edges, they fray ever so slightly. Giving that shabby chic look. I am a massive lover of denim, but I have made this rose in a variety of  fabrics. I'll post a couple more when I've managed to edit the pictures. Let me know what you think.
