Noble Leap of Faith Embroidery KITS

 Good Morning!!

I have (4) of these Kits left in stock and 

I wanted to share them with my Bloggers before I add it to my Instagram Post






This KIT contains: The design for “Noble Leap of Faith” which has been printed onto a piece of Linen Cotton Canvas- fabric size is  12 x 9 ½, the design area is 6 ½ x 5 ¼,
Patternayan Crewel wool fibers to embellish your stitchery, “Donna’s Favorite” stitch directions, a Needle, and 10 Close-Up color photos to view stitching suggestions,

I finished my thread painted design to be a pocket for my Yazzi Bag. Using a hoop I laid the design fabric on top of a piece of warm and natural batting, embellished with embroidery stitches…after I then added a piece of cotton to the back and quilted the design with random running stitches in all directions around the design,…when finished I turned over my edges, iron , pinned in place and stitched around the 2 sides and bottom to make an extra pocket for my bag….there are so many things you can use the panel for….use your imagination and have fun!!  

Have a Great Day
hugs
