Strawberry Humbug Scissor Fob

The Strawberry Humbug scissor fob has now arrived with it's new owner so I can show you pictures although Terry has put some excellent pictures on the HOE site too. It is stitched on 36ct sandstone linen with Gentle Arts and Soie Crystal threads. I put a 2007 5p coin inside (which is more or less the same size as a US 10c coin) for added weight. When I finished stitching the fob I liked it so much I had to stitch one for myself! I am so glad you liked it Terry.

I have had a busy weekend with not much stitching. We had a family dinner yesterday to celebrate some birthdays. Tom was 11 on January 25, Jack will be 15 on January 31 and Georgia will be 7 on February 1. Strange how birthdays come all at once!

Thanks for visiting with me

Take care

Carol
