Almost Complete ....

Here is my latest progress with 
Everyday Embroidery:
I added several felt squares for needles or pins on the inside of the book.
And two pockets for scissors or patterns.
I may put floss rings on the largest felt square....
And here's the back:
I am thinking about adding some flowers to the felt & placing cording around the edge of the 
sewing book ....
We will have to decide on that sometime next week 
Happy stitching !!!!

I love how this turned out.
The front cover is just great - what a neat idea to use the little needlebook to depict the sun.
I am reminded that I still need to try making one of those.
