A bit of stitching

A colleague, who has bought some of my felt brooches in the past, gave me a piece of tweed that she had left over from making a skirt. Here is the brooch I have made from it, using the tweed, some green velvet and a button from my button box. It is quite chunky so would be best on a coat.

  2. Love the new banner - the ric rac and repeated word across the top looks fab! Great brooch, too - what a lovely way to use up the little scrap of fabric and have something that will match!

  4. Janice that brooch is gorgeous! I am lucky enough to have two original Janice brooches - a poppy one and a pink flower (the one that you made me for my 40th last year). I love them!
