I remember making a clutch purse with roses on it at high school. I suppose the method would be same :)) thankyou for sharing the links and your mat pattern :))
ReplyDeleteOh I love your mug coaster! Thanks for the explanations!
ReplyDeleteI just love how I never fail to find inspiration here. Happy day to you, dear!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the links - lovely to find someone who likes many of the same crafts as I do! These days I mostly crochet, but I also do cross stitch, needlepoint and plastic canvas (I have a thing about boxes). However, I can never quite follow charts for plastic canvas - something to do with the differences between cross stitch charts and plastic canvas, so I usually end up 'improvising'!
ReplyDeleteI love this pattern. Thanks much! May I have permision to sell the finished project?
