I have also kept up my resolution to stitch every cover kit for the two magazines I get. This week was Cross Stitcher magazine's turn. As a member of EWBA (Enough With the Buttons Already!) I was not going to be fiddlefarting around with tiny little buttons covered in the hardest aida I have seen, it was like perforated paper! So I used the aida to stitch the flowers directly onto the felt shapes then pinned them to this lovely tote bag I won in a FB giveaway. I did use the buttons, I coloured in some scraps of fabric in tones which matched the bag then covered with tiny buttons with them and sewed them on the bag.
This is my blog for Finished Projects. To read about the stitching process and join in with the Blog Hops I organise come over to Serendipitous Stitching (link in side bar). In the mean time I invite you to "Come Happy Dance with me"
