I’m a lucky girl! I sent my mom the supplies to make this envelope by CrabApple Hill, which I had every intention of making at some point in my life. I guess I got tired on waiting on me and she’s so darned good at it. I love wool items but I just can’t bring myself to enjoy Thank goodness she picks up my slack and completes them for me!
I don’t know how else to describe it but beautiful!
Lots of embroidery and beading on it. Intricate work between all of the cutting, attaching rick rack, and buttons.
It’s pretty big. It measures 9″ x 15″ and holds everything you’d need for a trip, which is perfect for me! A place for scissors, a pen, needles. It has an envelope inside for a small notepad or your flosses. It even has a pincushion.
A this is so clever…the needle case is detachable for smaller projects.
And mom, if you’re wondering what I’ll be sending home next for you to work on, I’ve already got something picked out! I just can’t help myself.
