Petal Pouch - Amethyst Garden

I love making little stitched items which are useful but have a touch of whimsy about them.... I don't make them often but I have released this one for sale in my Etsy shop.

The beautiful spring garden colours of this floral print make this little pouch a perfect gift for someone special.
The pouch is small but surprisingly roomy - enough space to hold a few keys, money, secrets, or those special little treasures or it can hang as a decorative item on a wall or dressing table .
The pouch and lining are made from quality cotton fabric, with a double drawstring and hand stitched fabric beads. The feature of pouch is the folded fabric flower and suffolk puff embellishment, enhanced by the fabric covered button, hand painted face.

Size height 10cm/4 ins; Width when closed 5cm/2ins when open 13cm/5ins
Contents of pouch pictured are not included.

Chorus : There were plums and prunes and cherries, There were citrons and raisins and cinnamon, too There was nutmeg, cloves and berries And a crust that was nailed on with glue There were caraway seeds in abundance Such that...

Dance .... with leaves and animals

Dancing my way to Tag Tuesday this week for the theme "Dance-Dancers- Dancing" . Here I used torn bits of inked paper with other bits from concert advertising. All I could think of was kinetic energy and how I could convey that as a collage of contemporary dance. I liked the swirls of mark making because they remind of dance painting..... no words can explain this better than the sight of it in action. In the past week, I have also been mesmerised by the beautiful coloured autumn leaves which look as if they are dancing in the breeze as they fall from trees . (Remember, I am in the southern hemisphere so it is just the start of our winter). Attention -seeking Against a bushland backdrop Golden leaves dancing ( a free motion stitched wearable art pin #100pinpoems in #the100dayproject ) Sadly I was a little late photographing the tag I made for the previous theme "Animals" but I incl...
