Too Long

Yes, it seems to be slow process of mine, updated the blog, and the sewing.

This is a project I done about 2 years ago, I found it in my "sewing" folder in my pictures file.
So this is what I have chose to talk about today.
Once again, a story about work. A while back a few people in our department wanted to play the dirty santa for Christmas. I put in my bag for someone else, a "coupon" that was for a name banner, name of their choice and colors, etc. Someone picked it, then it got stolen, so Kellye got it. She wanted a name banner for her daughter. Color preferences, zebra print, hot pink, and turquois.

Here are 3 pictures of the finished project. They seem to always show at the top of my post, no matter where I try to place them.

So, one is the whole banner, name Courtney.
Another is one of the closeup of a letter. Pink backing, that wrapped around to the front, with turquois ribbon, sewn over the edges, that left a nice square of that color on each one. Each letter is sewn around, and this one has purchased trim flowers in each corner. It is sewn together with a pink ribbon behind every letter, and sewn at top of ribbon and bottom, so it could hang nicely


And last, I put a bow of zebra print at each hanging point (there is a circle behind it to hang it with), and a pretty turquoise bow and turquoise ribbon hanging from each one. Her daughter loved it.
