The Rag book.... 2 More pictures added.
...I made. You may remember that one of the girls in my Crafty morning was going back to the UK.
We all made samples of our work and I put them together in a rag book. These are examples of what was in the book. There were 14 in all! I've just selected a few.
Lynne loved the book so all went well.
The cover
My contribution is on the left
I shall download another couple tomorrow ....the internet is crawling along!

Re: The Rag book....
Last two pictures! The internet was behaving better today!
These two hearts are embroidered with silk flowers and threads.
the 4th set is a photo on fabric and some crocheted motifs from someone's wedding dress she is making! I mounted that on some silk.
I'm so pleased that this Rag Book turned out so well, and it was a great use of a whole load of shirt buttons I found in my button box!
