Toadstool Embroidery

This term’s project is a three-dimensional thread-painted toadstool.

Something like this (image from here)

Here’s my attempt

The fabric base is cotton lawn. And I have stitched floristry wire (26 gauge) around the edge. I am using DMC cotton floss.

The plan is to put it in a cloche – this one from IKEA. And we will make the bottom look like a place a toadstool would grow (I have ordered moss from Temu).

My thread painting is not great, but I am a beginner.
