creative space: needle books

Lucy had a little rest this afternoon so I managed to finish off some needle books I started a while ago. I spent a couple of evenings in front of the tv hand stitching the round patches on to some vintage linen and denim, then today finished them off with lining and New Zealand wool felt.

Now to get some in the shop !

  1. Beautiful fabrics. Lovely to have something so special for needles. My collection of needles are still kept in the little cardboard folders I buy them in, but these are far prettier.
