Sewing Tag

Thank you so much for the lovely comments on last week's tag. I really appreciate them and I will try very hard to visit more of you.
Of course, this week's theme of SEWING was so lovely to do, because I could incorporate so many of my favourite little things.

The background is a copy of an old Coats sewing thread advertisement. The top is a bit of a paper measuring tape ( you used to get them in the diy shop to help you measuring your stuff if you had come without one ). La Mode and the lady's head are from an antique French magazine. At the bottom is a label from an old cotton reel, a bit of antique French lace, a few mother of pearl buttons and some linen sewing thread made into  little bow. The tiny little heart in the stamped I heart sewing is a piece of French ticking fabric. What else? ah yes, a little "hand made " dingledangle and thats it. ( If you also read my blog, then you'll have noticed that I copied that bit of text from there. Arrghh, too little time to reword it, lol, its almost time for dinner ) 

Back to the kitchen and slaving over a hot stove, lol. Toodlepip xxx
