TAG TUESDAY - SEWING

Hello All

For my SEWING tag I used a quote about friendship being like a patchwork quilt -  Author Unknown.  It is photographed here with a postcard of Beatrix Potter's 'Tailor of Gloucester':

 I made the tag by covering some buckram with printed patchwork fabric, then embroidered ‘friendship’ on the top using backstitch. I wrote out the rest of the quote using matching pink watercolour and a dip pen.  I wanted as much patchwork fabric to show as possible so I cut away the excess paper and added some ric rac.

I have sent this tag to my friend of 24 years, for her birthday which is today; so if you’re looking Jacinta, ‘HAPPY BIRTHDAY!’

Wishing you all a creative week, Jane xx
