Bye Bye January ...

Happy Birthday Stephie

Here's the gift i made for Stephie's birthday. It's Hummingbird Scissor Case freebie from Xstitchhappy
Fabric is 28ct sky blue evenweave and threads DMC. First time i have made a scissor case like this and i'm very pleased with the result. Stephie's recently got back into stitching and blogging, please stop by and wish her Happy Birthday and encourage her to blog more!!!
