Cut a teardrop shape from purple felt approx. 9cm long. Then from dark purple cut a smaller teardrop shape 4cm high. Glue sequins to back around edges of small teardrop, with half sequins sticking out.

Step 2

Glue small teardrop to larger teardrop sequin side down. Glue on additional sequins and sew a small bead onto centre. Add topstitching detail around edges of large teardrop.
