I have been hard at work these last couple of weeks
making some gifts.
I kept them under wraps until I had given them to my friends
These little sewing wraps are based on a "housewife".
That was a little sewing kit my father had during the War
for his mending and running repairs while he was in the Airforce.
Mine measure 3 3/4" x 11" (approximately) and are made from the remants of my quilts.
Ooooh, this is very pretty!
ReplyDeletethis "housewife" is wonderful! such beautiful colors and textures.
ReplyDeleteat the risk of killing the cat, i'm curious, what did your father's measure out to?
Beautiful! I have heard of these, but never seen one. I'm sure your recipients will love them.
