When the world is your oyster, anything is possible. If you decipher the clues, read the cards and make a few educated guesses, you can win the whole game. Part of the Clue Characters Series, Miss Scarlet has a quilted bodice and hem and is made using both sides of the satin. The midriff is heavily quilted and free-motion embroidered on the longarm with Superior Metallics thread. The straps and lacing are Lion Brand Fun Fur and the lacing eyelets were made by machine. The wrap is created by suspending yarn, fabric bits, and threads between Solvy washaway and quilting very close together on my longarm, then dissolving the stabilizer. Even the lining is unique - the hem is actually the fabric selvage!
