What do you do when you've been off work for a few weeks, can't go out, can't do any of your usual hobbies because you're a bit (to say the least) fuzzle-headed? Well if you're me you think "Hmmm... I might make all the House crests from the 'A Song Of Ice And Fire' series of books by George R R Martin"

House Stark all finished (though I might re-do the letters 'cause they're wobbly) and only Targaryen, Baratheon, Tyrell, Martell, Tully, Greyjoy, Lannister and Arryn to go... Just have to do the shields for those.

I saw a beautiful embroidered Stark crest on here a while ago, but wanted to keep it simple as I'm doing the lot.

JadedJenn I think I'm going to mount them on a canvas board or something, to then hang on the wall. I have them all done apart from the lettering now, though that was very fiddly with the Stark crest so the rest may take me a while lol

eternallyeve, I drew/traced the designs onto some 'heat and bond' applique type stuff, ironed it onto the felt (which gave the felt a little more body) then carefully cut out with my embroidery scissors. I had more trouble with the lettering because the felt kept coming apart.
