Finished!

At last!! I have finished embellishing the book I started on the Lynda Monk workshop I went to the other week.  Following the theme of the sewing pattern that was used to make the cover (technique for this, is on this months WOW) I used an old tape measure, coloured with alcohol inks for the tie closures, a Tim Holtz die was used to cut  the mannequin which was covered with an advert from an old Needlewoman & Needlework magazine from 1961, it was then heat embossed to protect it. I coloured the press studs with alcohol inks too, as I didn't have any black ones.  I can't wait to see how everyone else finished their books at our next Embroiderers' Guild meeting
