Just as well as there is not much sewing going on here at the moment - back to another weary episode of "When Toddlers get Ear Infections". Poor little lamb has been walking about with her head sideways all weekend saying "Ear hurts, Mummy". Got some antibiotics from the doctor this afternoon so fingers crossed that it will clear up soon.
Happily I did do some sewing in August and so this post doesn't have to exclusively relate to ENT problems for the under-3s.
This is the needlecase I have made for
LMQG's December needlecase swap with the
Vancouver MQG. Having had a good gander at the
VMQG website,
I am only sorry I don't get to deliver it by hand myself, as it looks like the
good quilters of Vancouver have a lot of stitchy fun in their beautiful
city.
My favourite part is the metallic stitching I added to the tiara outline - it doesn't really come out on the photo but in real life it is nice and sparkly :)
I tried to make it as UK themed as I could with this linen stamp fabric on the front, with some
Echino London on the back:
And found some nice bright felt colours to go in the middle:
Good topstitch practice!
The needlecases will be picked by lucky dip so I hope this one goes to a happy new home in Vancouver x
