Key Embroidery

What this? Another filler post? Yes, I know, I know, I'm slacking. But with only one more weekend to finish my Victorian costume, I'll soon have a lot to show off

I finally got the base embroidery done on my golden key. It's terribly uneven, may have to draw guides next time to keep the lines more even. It definitely needs something to finish off the edges. I'm thinking of putting that newly aquired skill of finger loop braiding to good use to provide that finish, but I find myself unsure if that'd have the right look. Hmm, maybe I could use some of the gold wire left over from the muff work... Hmm....
