or two?
It's Eleanor, back with some stamping, stitching, snipping stuff.
Some weeks ago I made a couple of 8 inch square (ish) pieces, just freestyle, but they didn't really set me on fire, so I put them away until I felt inspired to finish them off.
That day came, I added a few more scraps, buttons and stitches, joined them together, added a border of tea-dyed broderie anglaise trim, and stitched the whole thing to some artists' canvas.
I added a couple of flaps inside, made plenty of pages from kraft card (Staples own brand manila files in a previous life) and toning cardstock, stitched lace or ribbon on each page, bound the lot with the Bind it all and slipped the front and back pages into the cover flaps.
All done.

That's great Eleanor, I hope I've the patience to step back and wait, and that I'd end up with something so lovely x
