Thanks for taking time to describe the process you used.  It's fascinating as well as beautiful.

Melinda, this piece is sewn on a base of silk fibres made into fabric which was then applied to cotton fabric.  Segments of very thin silver leather and one segment of chiffon were applied over that.  The centre raised area is worked with hot glue applied with a hot air gun and straight stitches and beads applied afterwards.  A variety of threads were couched down the edges of the segments.  I hope you can work this out in the photo.

Very interesting.  Would you mind describing what you used besides threads and beads?
