Tattoo - Debra Konen - "If a Tattoo..."
This was a hard challenge for me...I finally got my inspiration by looking at fabrics on line using the search term tattoo fabric.
I fell in love with this fabric from Spoonflower called Rockabilly Tats.
I recently became a grandmother for the 1st time and I think if I had the nerve to get a tattoo it would include my new granddaughters name: Emberly Lou!!!!!
The arm was made by creating a drawing of my traced arm and using oil pastels to add the color.
The tat on the arm is embroidered. I appliqued the body and arm on to the Rockabilly fabric. The edge is finished with a zig zag.....but it doesn't show in the photo.

Close up of a tat I would/could possibly get.....if only......
I love anything rockabilly and putting children and grandchildren's names on the arm as a tattoo is a real thing!! Very nice!!
