sorry for the lack of posts
we've been enjoying our summer
and visiting the beautiful city of columbus, OH
have you ever been there?
it was our first time
and i liked it.
but i did happen to come up with a little gift idea
in the midst of playing outside
my SIL had a birthday last week and i wanted
to give her a little something for her house
something for the summer
and this is what i came up with
if you've seen my
etsy shop
you've also noticed that i like fabric hoops
they are so multi-functional, i love it
so i started with some muslin and secured it
inside of the hoop
then i made a little bundle of fabric flowers
out of my fabric stash
two of them are simple gathered flowers
one has a button and the other has a covered button
and the third flower is a yo-yo
once the flowers were made
i took a needle and thread and secured
them to the muslin
then i did a little simple hand-stitch
of the words "bloom"
any words, or flowers would be darling
and who doesn't love a little handmade gift!
have a happy week
