My sister asked for some special makeup pouches to give to the first few people who purchased our Hot Rod Collection of nail polish by BB Couture. I was going to create something with this great piece of red and black with an abstract flame pattern ... but then I decided to try this out. I drew the flame in illustrator and traced it onto a paper backed fabric adhesive. Then I ironed the orange flame onto the front panel and used two strands of thread (one orange rayon and one red cotton) to outline the flames and add more flame detail. The edges are left raw and will fray with washing, giving it kinda a retro 40's feel.
I'm really pleased with how these two came out and anxious to see how the other 2 come up.
