To Ellen with Love

A "Thank You" gift for a friend.  This Moda fabric has been in my stash for a very long time and I cannot now recall whether it's" Wuthering Heights" or "Paris Flea Market", anyway it's very pretty.  The squares were already joined together so it was just a case of cutting to size - simple!!  To baste the fabric and batting together I used one of my Bernina's embroidery stitches to create wavy lines along the seams.
 
 
 
I wrap my gifts in tissue paper and add a personalised tag using the same fabric.  The tags are attached to gift bags with crinkly seam binding.
 
Ellen enjoys days out and I hope she will find her new tote useful
