Strawberry N' Chocolate crazy quilt style sewing kit ....



Strawberry n' Chocolate sewing kit opened out.

Hand embroidery, fern stitch, french knots, etc.


Strawberry N' Chocolate sewing kit made with silks and taffeta is progressing. I've added hand embroidery and vintage mother of pearl buttons and beads.
The red cross stitches remind me of a strawberry patch. My strawberry plants on my patio are producing strawberries! My husband has planted beet seeds and they are coming up already.
We're getting things done around here, how about you?




Inside; felted wool needle keeps, roomy pocket


Wrapped up and tied with crushed velvet ties.
