Stitchy Sunday!

I have been bitten by the sewing bug, sewing fabric that is!  Always a fan of stitching paper I finally put some fabric under my sewing machine this summer and discovered I love it maybe even more than stitching paper!
I found this needlebook tutorial on Nana Company blog and had to give it a try.
I did want to incorporate stamping somehow so I found this very appropriate stamp by Whimsy Stamps from the A Touch of Elegance stamp set
 The bonded by love stamp on the back is also Whimsy Stamps from the Friends and Family Mini Postage stamp set.
 I wanted to make this a little sewing kit rather than just a needle book so thought the addition of the thread would be useful.  I will also add some needles.
 If you want to make one you should check the tutorial but here are some pics in progress.
 The patchwork on the back is so fiddly but so worth it I feel!
