~Teensy Tiny Finish~

Here is the ninth finish in my stitch~along with Sandra. It is With My Needle Scissor fob and is part of a little series of accessories from this designer which came out in the Just Cross Stitch Christmas Ornament books. This is from the 2006 book. It matches the Stitchers Needleworker's Pocket and Needlebook we stitched earlier on. We have another two to go which from memory I think are the Scissor Sheath and Pinkeep. It will be nice to have a little set of matching accessories.


This is my version...



As you can see, the bunnies are very interested :)

This is really tiny and only measures one and a quarter inches square so to give it some weight, I put an Australian 10 cent coin inside and Sandra put an English penny in hers.

Here is Sandra's version...




"Don't go into Mr. McGregor's garden: your Father had an accident there; he was put in a pie by Mrs. McGregor."

- Beatrix Potter, (1866 - 1943) English author "The Tale of Peter Rabbit"

  3. What a really beautiful miniature project and a scissor fob will help one locate scissors amongst the inevitable piles of fabric when one is quilting. I just visited the South African National Quilters' Festival last week. See the post on my blog if you have a momment between stitches. It is spring here too!
