08. Just Nan Tea with Honey

 

Just Nan Tea with Honey

Stitched on 28 count dusky pink linen

This was a Travelling Pattern in the Just Nan FB Group

One of the sides, they are all slightly different

I stitched this as six seperate pieces and then whip-stitched them into a cube. 

 I mounted the sides and bottom on thin card but wasn't sure about the top. I wanted it to be used as a pin cushion but if I mounted it on card it would bend in when I stuck pins in. 

 So I used thick mat board with a 1 inch square cut in the middle where the pins will go! I put some nice wadding between the card and the fabric so it feels soft.

I added my initials to the bottom
