Sewing is a good distraction!
After spending most of yesterday and this morning sleeping, suffering with nausea and headache from my bloomin' sinuses, I managed a bit of sewing this afternoon.
I had a bit of wool blanket lying around that I'd needle felted a while back as part of another project I've been in the middle of for a long while.
At first I sketched out a doodle from my sketchbook using my sewing machine (the orange stitching) but I didn't like it so cut the fabric up into a tag shape then added a flower!
The ribbon at the top is from Ray-Stitch, a fabulous shop in Angel, Islington, London. If you look closely there are some tiny beads around the centre of the flower.
