This is an "artist's companion". Sketch pad on the right and pockets for pencils etc on the left. It was made in the hoop. The embroidery design on the front is from Urban Threads. It has elastic to keep it closed.

Very beautiful and love it. Your hoop size in your Janome is larger than my Babylock. You have a great design style.

It looks great Sue & such a great idea.

what a great idea

Yet another fantastic creation and way beyond my capabilities. Once again, I do love those designs from Urban Threads. Thanks for showing us your beautiful work Sue.

This is neat and keeps the artist neat.Nice work Sue!/Lillian

Nicely done...

Very nice impression :) What hoop size do you use? And what size pad? Anything larger than A6 and I use the sewing machine..

The hard backed book inside is 25cm x 20cm. I used the 230 x 300 hoop and it took 3 hoopings. Just the inside needs to be hand stitched to finish it off. (The sketch pad is A5)

Looks fantastic. Can't believe that it is all done ith. Love the border on the front too
