embellishment challenge

For my embellishment challenge, i focused mostly on stitching and stencil work throughout the process. The shirt was firstly dyed an off white/brown colour, however the colour managed to fade whilst drying.

I stitched into the collar of the shirt, “my body, my life”, signifying how my project is based around body positivity and acceptance.

I pre stitched some drawings that i them stitched onto the chest and the sleeve of my shirt, still maintaining the colour scheme of my project. i also added some designs on both the cuffs and the sleeve of the shirt. on the other side of the chest, i attempted stenciling, however the colour was not as vibrant when dry so i decided to outline the image with stitching.
