Next project

In an effort to ease the boredom of eyelets on the Hardanger tassels I have stitched one rose (over one thread on 32count is hard on the eyes!) and sorted out my next project.
My current needle case for packets of needles is full to capacity of Tapestry needles and I need another to hold the sharps, chenilles, beading needles etc.
So a stash delve and a night of tacking has the linen ready to be put through the overlocker to secure the edges.   There's a lot of preparatory work for this but it comes together well.   I won't be doing Schwalm though - more likely some Sajou monograms.
I haven't decided what colour to stitch in - perhaps my favourite DMC115.

What a beautiful rose, the tassels will look lovely.

Tassel all complete now and ready to give away. I've made a start too on the needle packet roll and have found another couple of projects to keep me occupied. All good on the stitching front:-)

I like you old needle case is pretty, but the new one will be stunning!

I have the new one started now after some mental gymnastics as to how it was to be folded for construction. I was so afraid I'd stitch on the wrong side.
