Latest Project - Stumpwork embroidered Crazy Quilted box.

I have to admit it is easier to make things in a house than in the caravan.  I was commissioned to make a gift for a friend for their friends up coming birthday.


 Embroidered Basket with silk ribbon roses and beaded flowers.

And of course my signature beetle.
The lady who commissioned it has received, she is over the moon with the result as am I.
