Jennie's Threads

I have now located a USB cable and here are the photos of the too-small mobile phone cases - despite size issues, they are very pretty. This is the front of Vicky's mobile phone case - it's plain dye purple fabric, then I used a rubber stamp to put on the daisies, then stitched over them in DMC 210 - there were an awful lot of French knots....
