the finished article (again!)

I don't know if you remember a few weeks ago I posted some WIP pictures about a hand made presssie I was doing for a good friends little girl. Well here is the finished article.

She was having a gardening themed birthday party so I made an embroidered apron (you can never have enough pinny's - in fact as I am typing I am sporting a very nice Cath Kidston one myself!!) with patch pockets designed to look like flower pots.

The gift was completed with a bright pink tin watering can, some big plant labels, and a shameless copy of Jo's lovely seed book.

The party was a great success and all the children had a little zinc bucket of violas and a balloon weighted down with a packet of seeds, to go home with - really lovely!
