"Once upon a time..."

Hello,


This past week I have been making a cloth book. I used designs from Sue Box's "Enchanted Fairy Treasures."

The designs are quite intricate and took sometime to stitch out. It was interesting to see how the colours I chose stitched out.


Now I better not show any more pages. After all it is a present for baby Faye.

Happy days.
Bev C
