Repurposing

I found this top whilst sorting through some things and having decided it was too small to wear, thought of what I could do to repurpose it.

This is what I came up with and it used only one side of the front, I was really pleased with the little sachets filled with lavender, very fragrant and ideal for drawers, wardrobe or the linen cupboard.

I love this little case and enjoyed making it

Its an Elizabethan style design using Stumpwork, a technique that really appeals to me, this one includes needlelace too and when you undo the ribbons it turns itself into.........

this......a needle and pin case or a handy little travel bead mat

enjoy your stitching

take care
