My latest project

I have not have done too much sewing this past week. But, I have managed to complete the little stitchery for Lynette Andersons's little purse last week. This is my first attempt at punchneedle, though it is not perfect, I am really happy with the way it has turned out!! I just love the vine going all the way around:

Here is a close up of the punchneedle work:


I might start putting it together early next week.

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend!

That is very cute Sarah. I bought one of her punch designs when Diann and I visited Patchwork Angel in May - haven't started it yet. Looking forward to seeing the purse finished. You might have some tips for me.
