Brushing Up

The April embroidery club project and designs are up and ready for download, click here to get to the download page. It’s a Cosmetic Brush Rollup. And, it makes a great gift for your favorite girl.
We used four different fabrics in this project; two prints and two solids. Sounds like a lot for a small project, but they work beautifully. I especially love the dot binding. You can’t buy funky binding like this, you have to make it. If you too would like to make your own bias binding click here to download the tutorial.
Patricia from Life’s A Stitch in Sault Ste. Marie, (my proof reader) wasn’t happy with the topstitching of the brush channels showing through to the right side, so she topstitched the pocket onto the lining and then stitched the lining onto the outer fabric.
 
Anyway, have fun with this one. Let me know what you think??
