Sewing

Sorry I have been away for so long. I have been unwell & extremely busy. But here I am and getting back into the swing of things. Parden the pun :-)

When I saw the challenge for doing a tag themed on sewing, my mind went crazy (not that it has ever not been crazy:-) ) I have been making a fabric book, that I have been filling with antique sewing ephemra for some time now, & when asked to do the tag, I had just what I needed. This tag will go inside my Vintage sewing journal.

  6. This is lovely Elizabeth. That little book is very cute indeed, where did you come across that? And the little thimble & scissors! Where do you all get these embellishments from?!?

    1. The little book I made myself, from a picture in a magazine of a magazine cover, then I added it onto a folded piece of card & added some pages. As for the thimble & cotton reel, they where in a packet of tiny buttons & the scissors are a charm that I bought at a show. The tape measure was a stamp that was stamped onto some fabric, then cut out & sewn on. Thank you all for your comments on my tag. Your friend Elizabeth xxx
