    So beautiful. How did you sew the circles so perfectly round? Are the edges turned under? I'm trying to imagine how you did that. I would love to know.

    Oh hon, it is absolutely gorgeous! Totally my kind of colours. I am astounded by your talent (and patience). Just looking at your handstitching - it's fantastic.

    Have a fabulous week! It's school holidays here at the moment so I'm having to get up really early just to sneak some blog time!!!
