New bits...........

A few new bits for your perusal and feedback!
I've been playing with making some buttons perhaps to include in/on my work? I quite like them when laid out in little collection/arrangements and photographed too. The ones below are my tiny stitched flowers made into buttons as suggested by the lovely kirstyfish.

some of my tiny seed head doodles transfer printed onto fabric with a few hand stitches and then made into buttons
some more petite purses in lilac with seed heads and lollipop flowers printed on them, plus a wee bit of stitching. (the lollipop purse is available from my notmassproduced page, I'll be listing the seed head purses on my etsy shop tomorrow - link is in my sidebar, need some light to take some more photos!)
And............................... a sample idea which I would be grateful of some feedback on. A simple tote and purse, with my abstract stitched pieces transfer printed on them with hand stitching and a few buttons. Trying to keep it simple. I like these colours together, quite fresh and perhaps even a touch nautical??!
Oooo had to include a pic of my new business cards from moo. what do you think? I was really pleased with how they came out although I know this picture doesn't do them justice.
As always I'm overwhelmed by the fabulous people that stop by and visit my blog, thank you you talented bods! wishing you all a fab weekend as it's nearly here! ;0 x

Hi. I love all this work, the tote is delightful. I also like moo cards but did you know you can get more, cheaper and bigger on vista print? That's not to say I don't love my moo cards though, it justs gives me a variety. Keep stitching, it's glorious.

Kirsty, as always, you have created beauty! Those buttons are so cute! I can't decide...seedpods or flowers? mmmm. I'm sure both will look lovely on your designs. P.S. the cards are fabulous! Love Moo:)
