Ooops!

While looking for something else, I came across these, pages that should have gone in my fabric book
I thought there should have been more, but they weren't letting on the first time round I was looking for them.  They kept well and truly hidden

Thankfully, it was just a simple task of sewing them into a double sided page

and add them to the book.  Another line of stitching down the centre,

and it is all done.  This time, definitely finished-I hope!

Fabric Book

I've not made a fabric book before, so I was so pleased that this went together so easily, I wouldn't mind making another one sometime.
 I picked out a spare fat quarter I had.  It was enough to do the inside, outside, and the tab
 I made a bar for the tab to go under, using the needle weaving techniques learnt last year in Karen's class.  Great to be able to use them in different situations.
 The pages were joined together, then I stitched down the centre to fix them in place
The end result, is a book that has been labelled "cool" by one of the boys!  That's what I call a result.
That's the end of the Stitched Sunday embroidery pages.  I still have the hearts, and the Skill Builder Sampler series to catch up with, plus a couple of other projects to start for the year.
