Work in progress- 12 x 12 amulet

imageI’m working on a new 12″ x 12″ amulet, with fusible applique. I’m having trouble picking the color for the center top “window.” At first I thought the periwinkle below was the right color. Here I am cutting it out with my sharpest scissors. The white part is a template that I cut out of freezer paper. The fusible web is on the other side of the fabric.

After I cut it out, I looked at it in place, and didn’t like it.

imageThen I tried the pink on top of it, which I disliked so much that I didn’t take a photo of it. I cut out a darker blue one, as a border, which you see below. I’m still not happy with it. I think I’ll sleep on it, and see how I feel tomorrow.image
