Dreamy Days of June


My little Do.Good flickr group decided to do a pouch swap.
It was a secret swap. 
I love a good secret. 

 
Here's my secret pouch to my secret friend.  
Who's no longer secret.  She's real. 
I can speak her name. 
Her name is Rachel


I decided on my favorite vinyl pouch
It makes me so happy to see what's inside. 
I've made several
Here's a hint to closing up those pesky ends. 
Maybe it's the shiny vinyl. 
If I was a cat I would like shiny things. 

 
Can't go wrong with a good hexagon. 
It was patterned after this purse
I love sewing hexagons on the sewing machine. 
If I was a hexagon, I'd go to Mexico and be a Mexagon!

I threw in a little needle case.

 
The hand in heart is classic folk art. 

 
If I was a heart I would love to be 
cradled in this polka dot hand.

This is the awesome pouch I received
from my secret friend, Linda.
If I was Nancy Drew I would have figured out that secret.


Look at the loooong pin cushion. 
I love it.  

 
Yep, if I was a pin cushion I would 
want to be long and skinny. 

Isn't summer great? 
Endless hours of dreaming.....

  4. I love the colours on the hexagons. I must say I have only hand pieced hexagons, is it easy on a sewing machine?

    Pouches, pin cushions and folk art needle holders are all nice gifts to give and receive. Love all the bright and cheery colors.
