Making An Embroidered Moth Brooch // Emperor Moth

Today I'm going over how I make embroidered and beaded bug brooches! In this case moths, but I also want to make a few beetles. It's time to strain the eyes and shoulders and embroider away for hours on end! Materials: craft felt, needles (beading and sewing), thread, embroidery floss, beads, sequins, pin backs, buckram (optional) Trovelore brooches: https://trovelore.com/ Cartwrights Sequins: https://www.ccartwright.com/sunshop/?gclid=Cj0KCQiA-qGNBhD3ARIsAO_o7ykBUecEGvFFvZW0wYk7i6DUidCmFS9cOa89BNEF29IDfG2b4rRNI50aAsgVEALw_wcB Moth Image Credits: From wiki commons Female moth 1: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Saturnia_pyri._%D0%9C%D0%B0%D1%8F%D1%86%D1%8C%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%B9_%D0%BBic.jpg Female moth 2: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Saturnia_pavonia_(Saturniidae)_(Emperor_Moth)_-_(female_imago),_Vivi_des_Bois,_Belgium.jpg Male moth: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:68.001_BF1643_Emperor_Moth,_Saturnia_pavonia,_male._(2495809127).jpg Music and Sound Effects from Epidemic Sound.
