My package for the Sweet Pouch Swap finally made it to Kristi, so I can show you what I made.
Kristi said she liked pinks, yellows and greys, and she also liked animal prints, polka dots, scrappy and text. I decided to make scrappy polaroid blocks for each side of the pouch, and then I added some hand stitching and used a polka dot lining.
She also mentioned that she had a love for the UK, so I made her a little needlebook using an embroidery design by Wild Olive.
I filled the pouch with weird and wonderful sweets from Indonesia (which I forgot to take a photo of!). I hope you liked your package Kristi - I enjoyed making it for you.
Oh, and this is a Q1 finish for the Finish-A-Long 2014 and I am linking up with Sew Cute Tuesday.
