I haven't been up to much stitch wise this week, went to a couple of parties, that's my years allotment,almost :)
I also had a day out at our Guild, everyone takes their stitching along and we enjoy lots of chat and coffee,
Wednesday I decided my bulging needle case has had its day, it is stuffed with needles most of which I can not even thread any more. it also takes a lot of space up in my bag when out and about
I chose one of my favourite samples of white cotton velvet, layered with painted bondaweb and machine stitch, I was just going to straighten the edges and line it with felt, and put a selection of needles,
but got carried away and put a couple of pockets, attached my scissors and a strip for just a few needles, I spotted a sketch book that looked the right size, but it wouldn't fit with its big spiral wire and hard cover, I removed the covers and stitched the pages with some De Massey yarn, also used the yarn with some turquoise wool top zig zagged on top to tie it up,
