Glamping

This theme is very in keeping with our current project at the moment, restoring an old 1980's Monza1200s
It's been bit of a journey for us, repainting inside and out, recovering seats and making new curtains but it is almost complete you can read all about it on my blog 'projects' page.
Decided to go textile with this one and feature our little Monza 
Fabric painted background (scraps from my recent flower quilt project)
layer of green organza ribbon, machine applique and embroidery with French knots to finish.
We look forward to spending many happy days in our little Monza
Apologies for the picture quality the light was fading fast by the time I got it done

  4. This is such a cute tag and I love how you've used the delicate shade of green to bring it all together, in the sky, van stripe and ribbon. Really lovely.
    I hope you have many happy holidays in your newly re-vamped caravan.
