Playing With Fish

I've just been having a play with my new fabric and thread. No great creations, just one wee small one. A needle book.

          Front...                                                             Back...                                                            Inside.

It is only now that I have finished it that I realise I haven't top stitched the edges before sewing the seam to fold it in half. Oh well, I'm not ripping out any stitches. I like it how it is well enough.

  7. Very sweet! Some of your perfect hand stitching would remedy the lack of edging if you are so inclined! It's gorgeous any which way!!!

  9. Very lovely - they're like little framed pictures. Isn't it funny how just a few posts ago you were embroidering a little gold fish, and now you have your own HR goldfish in bags!

  10. Great idea. I love those colours. That deep rich orange is the colour making my fingers itch at the moment. Every time I see it in fabric or yarn form I want to play with it.

  13. Don't go near the plastic bag with a seam ripper! You might kill off the fish!

  17. I agree, it is so cute. You could topstitch it with a little perle cotton now if you wanted to.
