Le Camembert de la Brodeuse

My Polish friend Ela from France had her birthday in the last days of March but I waited for an order to come in from the US to add some things to her birthday package.... I did my best to choose from what she likes best :)

Here is what I made for her... from the I. Vautier book I received from Elisabeth for Christmas... it is the first project I made from this book.

The name I gave to it is "Le Camember de la Brodeuse" - my French readers will understand, it looks like a camembert cheese :)

I meant it as a paper holder or pinkeep, or whatever Ela might like to use it for :)
Rond de l'etang from the book
"Les Samplers en Rouge et Blanc" (Isabelle Vautier)






The goodies included a pack of cute pink flower buttons, 3 pieces of R&R and hand-dyed fabrics, the new Blackbird Designs, 3 specialty threads, and a charm pack of 37 pieces of Moda fabrics.... I love to make good friends smile ;-)
I and Ela chatted a short while on Skype tonight, she's currently visiting her hometown and family in Poland. They were all pooped after a long drive in car and arriving in the middle of the night :)
