Mini book swap

Rather than exchanging Christmas gifts I took part in a mini book swap with my friend.  Unfortunately I do not know what she has made me yet, because the parcel is at my parents and I have flu and can't go visit them to pick it up.  That little treat will be, hopefully, at the weekend!

Anyway - here is the one I made her....  I chose a 1950s sewing theme....



Fabric and lace flowers and a metal bird charm

I made the dressform and cotton reel from shrink plastic



I left a few pages blank for photos or journalling.




These needle cases are genuine old ones that I found in my mum's sewing kit-  scanned and made into mini booklets










 


I added a tag with handmade printed on
