– First, I cut the shape of my scarf in the muslin fabric.
– After having chosen my Celtic pattern, I stung it thanks to a stinging tool to transfer it thanks to a special powder with a “poncette” covered with powder on my fabric that I stretched on my embroidery frame.

– After having removed the scar from the embroidery frame, I ended to sew it by machine and by hand.
– To enhanced the work, I sewn black satiny fringes by hand and to bring a final touch, I added a satin rose on the pointed edge.
