A Needlebook and Scissors Fob Set

Another month is quickly passing by so I'm making good use of my stitching time and have been stitching a storm lately. What have I been up to you might ask?! Well I've been stitching some smalls and completing the finishings as I go but I'll not show all here now as some of them still need more work being done on them. So watch out over the next few days for my steady flow of exhibition of my smalls.

I have come to love stitching and finishing needlebooks. I found one way to finish a needlebook on Nataliejo's blog which I thought was very interesting. I think I did a not-so-bad job on the needlebook and I really enjoyed stitching and making it up. So you know I will be making plenty more needlebooks in the future with different style and variations. I choose a freebie from A Mon Ami Pierre and used DMC colours with the help of Carol's (Just Carol) Blog. So I take this opportunity to thank Nataliejo and Carol for their help.
