"sewing"

Sewing or stitching?
I think of the first as mainly using a machine and the second as using needle and thread.
Whatever, I have  enjoyed both for many years.
I decided to look in my WIP box - it's overflowing with so many things started with enthusiasm and then overtaken by my next "must do immediately" project!
This could be a lovely sampler if it ever got finished - hopefully the tag will jolt me into action .... maybe not though!
The stitching is with embroidery floss but as I also love stitching with chunky fibres I made a background with a few.

I really enjoyed last week's purple tags - many thanks for nice comments and congratulations to all for inspirational ideas - sorry I didn't get round to individual comments.  Connie.

  9. This is a beautiful tag! I went to my wip box first and after nay-saying everything in it...used what was closest to the top of my many stacks!
