Teddy in disguise

Teddies don't usually go to masked balls but this one did. I wanted to share this great mask that I stitched out on my embroidery machine. It's called Phoenix and it was another great learning experience. The mask was off of a Cactus Punch CD. They have some great layered masks on it too. Just haven't made them yet. The base of the mask is organza and I used a thin water soluble stabilizer behind it. I still need to use my soldering iron to burn out the unstitched organza but I really like it. I'm going to have to make a doll for the mask now. But, on second thought, the mink teddy looks kind of cute.
