Stitching

Well, during the school holidays I've managed a few hours of sewing.

I took my children to a play centre and whilst they had fun, I had fun merrily sewing away.

I've been looking through Pinterest and been inspired to do something vintagey (is that a word?) and whimsical and came up with this...

                     

The half moon lace is tatting done on my grandma's tatting shuttle to give it the vintage touch whilst the large piece of lace in the scroll shape is guipure lace.

I've done it in a heart on calico and intend to make it into a heart shaped lavender bag.

Hope you like it.
