Les Ciseaux de Paris

Click on the picture for a closeup view

My dear friend Caroline stitched Sew Bands and then did her own thing with the finishing! She stitched her own Eiffel Tower with more bands and then finished both pieces as a case for her Limited Edition Eiffel Tower scissors. It is stitched with Gloriana's Cranberry silk thread on 40ct natural linen with the Eiffel Tower stitched over one in tent stitch. Caroline then found the perfect fabric for the lining. The whole thing is absolutely beautiful and a big thank you to Caroline for allowing me to post this here.

Sew Bands is still available *here* or by clicking on the CHARTS button on the sidebar.

Thank you for visiting

Take care
