Little stitcheries.






I love little things to stitch and spent a pleasant afternoon stitching these little brooches.

The back is some beautiful Irish tweed that I bought at
The Festival Quilts back in the summer. I've built up the layers with different fabrics
then added buttons and bits.
A quick and easy project and
It,s a fun way to brighten up my coat!!
