Patchwork Tilda

 Here's one that I'd forgotten about, a card made for my lovely Sister-in-law a few weeks ago. I bought these papers with her in mind as she's a real whiz on the sewing machine, would love to have her skill!
She made a beautiful patchwork throw a while back  and that's what inspired my card.


The Tilda 12x12 pad has a couple of pages of die cuts so I decoupaged using two of the sewing machines. I even threaded the bobbin and added a snippet of cotton fabric and some ricrac to give the impression of it being mid sew and made a tape end to add to my tape measure ribbon where I tucked in the sentiment.
  Then you know me, sometimes bunting is the only way to go lol!


4CGC, Anything goes,
CRC99, Anything goes,
DC, Ribbon,
STB, Twine,
TSOC, Die cuts and punches,
DOCB82, Lots of layers,
TTT, Material Girl,
PDE15, 3 or more papers,
OLL161, Vintage,
SFC29, Round.

Thanks for stopping by,
Julie B.x
