Done, done, AND done!!



Above - Front of hussif, folded








Left - the back




Below - the inside fold




Outside, unfolded...



Inside...


I think this will be the last hussif, at least in the foreseeable future anyway.  I don't know anyone else in my immediate circle that are 'in need' of one.  This has ended up being one of my favourites out of all the ones I've made - maybe 8 of them, not sure because I've lost count.

Today your quote is from Jerry Ellis..."We're all only fragile threads, but what a tapestry we make"

  6. What a wonderful finish! Your hussif is fantastic! (I do have a confession... Every time I entered a craft or sewing store, I looked for sewing themed patterns that I might be able to send your way. Unfortunately, I failed to find any - but you managed to find plenty of sewing themed ideas for this beauty!)

    It is gorgeous. Congratulations!
