Fully Finished Gallery - March

Hi Everyone,

As soon as a new month commences, the days seem to start galloping by and its check-in day again for the Fully Finished Gallery SAL, hosted by Rachel at Ten Hour Stitcher.


This is a free design called Black Needles which can be found here at Ravenelle. I stitched the pattern twice a few years ago.


and after adding a few sparkly bits, one pattern got finished as a needlebook (photo below) whilst the other got discarded.


This month I rescued the remaining pattern and sorted out a piece of suitable batik and some odds and ends to make a similar finish.


I added some pretty sequins to give a splash of colour and repeated a tiny part of the pattern - without any bling this time - for the inside scissor pocket.



A piece of wool felt to accommodate some pins and needles and a small plain black button to close.




I look forward to visiting other blogs to see what finishes others have done.
Happy stitching.

  1. Another exquisite pretty stitched by clever you, Sheryl. =) The black sewing machine against the pink background looks fabulous sitting atop the pretty blue and back floral fabric. LOVE that fabric! Love too, the tiny cross stitch, black flowers against the pink background on the inside. Everything about your beautiful little needlebook is perfect! It truly is a joy to visit you each time to see what you have imagined.

    1. My bad photography to blame Kim, the stitching is done on a natural coloured linen, no pink at all. :-(
