Sewing plaque


I have made a few of these sewing plaques and they are very popular. My Mum asked me to make one for a friend she meets most Friday morning. Her friend is a very keen sewer so I hope she likes her present. The ribbon from Crafty Ribbons was the perfect sentiment. The patchwork paper is from a LOTV pad. I used a mannequin diecut  I cut some time ago from a friend's Tim Holtz die and used it as a template for the spotted dress.  I added some wooden embellishments, winding baker's twine around the spool. Searching through my buttons I found the cute bows, heart and flower.
