Many ideas but had to limit for one entry due to lockdown routine; a 3D straw hat using brush embroidery technique. One thing I wanted to experiment here is how it looks like brush embroidery on a 3D cookie, here you go.
Tried to use brush embroidery technique for all areas of the creation.
Baked circle and contour shaped cookie using gingerbread cookie dough. Thanks Julia, @Julia M. Usher I referred to your gingerbread cookie dough and 3D construction cookie video as usual.( https://youtu.be/yiFqM0bEmTY )
Cookie size = 22.5 cm diameter circle cookie.
First, I flooded a big circle and 3D contour shaped cookies using beige colour RI.
Then using the same coloured RI, brush embroidered on the circle shaped cookie by using a flat brush to get Straw hat weave effect. Same method used to cover contour shaped cookie.
Attached cookies together to get the hat shape. After that brush embroidered maroon colour ribbon around the neck of the hat.
Made RI transfers flower petals, leaves and butterfly separately.
Before removing all RI transfers from acetate brush embroidered and kept sometime for drying. Once all dried, I attached separate components to create flowers.
Oh Kanchana, this is sooo lovely! This is such a great idea to make a straw hat using brush embroidery! This means we can make cookies of anything made with straw, you give us a great idea. You make me noticed that yes we also have many things made of straw, such as tatami mat, well that's not fancy at all, though.
I was wondering when you were going to post your cookie for this challenge and you made this prettiest straw hat. I love Challenge here because many cookiers give me super ideas that I would never notice.
Oh wow!!!! This is an excellent presentation, dear Kanch! I love all the details you put into it, so many precise steps so meticulously arranged while learning from great teachers. The outcome couldn’t be better. Absolutely beautiful!♥️
The technique and texture of your brush embroidery leave no doubt that this is a straw hat. And an incredibly realistic one at that. It was also clever how you reimagined a different way to create the flowers and butterfly. I also applaud you for those intact butterfly antennae.
Great idea. I tried brush embroidery on 3D pinwheel cookies but was not successful. I didn't have time to try again but I think brush embroidery will work well for 3D cookies which you've proved here. Here your piece is beautiful looks exactly like the ones sold in Kanyakumari.
Oh how beautiful @Kanch J!! You created such an amazing 3D cookie project, especially using all the brush embroidery technique. Gorgeous work. I love the flowers and even the leaves are done with brush embroidery...wow!! I'm super impressed my dear ❤️❤️

Thank you for kind words dear Ryoko @Ryoko ~Cookie Ave.Your comment is encouraging me so much. Glad to hear that you have been waiting to see mine. Yes, I do agree. Can get so many new ideas from each and every PRB challenge and from amazing artists.
