Today I'd like to share with you a present i have made for penny for Christmas - she asked for a sewing box - and this is what I have done for her.
Its a set of drawers from Ali Reeve's Clevercut and i have decorated them with gesso then graphic 45 papers. The theme matches her sea themed bedroom.
At the top I have added a few sewing bits and bobs - so she knows to use it for sewing.
A sneaky peek inside two draws shows that she's got allsorts of tools in there as well as thread.
I have to make one for Lucy now too! The box I had in mind may not hold some of the tools so I may have to order another one of these!!!
Thanks for looking today and for your kind comments yesterday!!
I'd like to enter this into eileenhull art-with-heart-november-challenge-a-stitch-in-time-
