Silk yo-yos, embellishing "Prairie" sewing kit

Silk yo-yos, turquoise, cream will be sewn on pocket here.

Silk yo-yo's will be add here.



 I'm layering the embellishments onto #3 in a series, "Prairie" crazy quilt style sewing kits. I've sold the first two, remembering of course to write down measurements and take photos so I can make more.
The pin cushion china creamer is one of my many experiments in embellishing, keeping the inspiration flowing not stagnating. Trying different approaches  helps you focus on what is important and then you can let go of the stuff that bogs you down.
Check out Sharon B's for interesting inspiration and projects.
