For the past month or so I've been listening to a lot of Patsy Cline. Here is one of my favorites.
She's Got You-Patsy Cline
I like bluebirds. Especially embroidered bluebirds tee-hee-hee.
DMC 3838 for the bluebird. DMC 3608 and 3609 for the roses and DMC 703 for the leaves
I cut a long rectangle out of an old cereal box and covered it with blue gingham fabric. Once again, I used the glue gun to fasten the fabric to the cardboard. I used pinking shears on the piece of fabric on the inside to give it a more finished edge.
I glued the little bird onto the cover and stuffed it with cotton.
I added a bit of Velcro to each side and this little pocket with a button onto the first page of felt. The pocket will hold a floss bobbin!
Added a few of our fancy bead pins and a needle and some safety pins.
If I do this again, I will fold the cardboard to make a little spine. The needle book ended up pretty thick. I'd also like to figure out a way to keep a scissor in the book as well.
A sweet little needle case
