My first needlebook....

Well....not too bad for my first attempt! I made this needlebook for Jan for a LK Exchange and was pleased with the results....


My sewing skills are something to be desired so I definitely had to use my noggin for this one. I even figured out to make two little pockets inside but still can't sew in a straight line! Jan liked it and I certainly enjoyed stitching and finishing it for her.

Thanks for looking...happy stitches....
