Hussif

Here is the hussif I made my ss for xmas. I enjoyed embelishing this English cottage scene using beads french knots and other stitches.

Believe it or not I bought this rose applique in a bag of scrap lace as a grab bag at a garage sale. beauty....
I modified the thimble sack from http://cqmagonline.com/ . That site is great it is worth rooting around in check it out.
