Here is a floss tag I stitched using patterns from Blackbirds newest book. I decided to use it as a bag tag for the floss I am using to stitch up their little stockings.
Now, I don't know what came over me, but I actually did the finishing on this needle book all by myself! I usually avoid any machine sewing unless it is for an exchange and that is because I put it off until the last minute and end up having to do it myself, lol! This time I was blog surfing and saw this free pattern and thought, I might be able to do this one. And sew I did. I am sew pleased with how it turned out. Mind you, it isn't perfect, but then again, neither am I =)
Now, keep checking back. I will be having a give-away for my Blogaversary, which will be April 3rd, of something I stitched. No, not the needle book. It's mine too, lol. I will give a hint though. It's a little something from Blackbirds new book. I had to stitch two so I could keep one for myself. My goodness I am a greedy girl this year! And I love it...
Have a great day!

You did a great job on both pieces, Paula :) I think your needlebook turned out beautifully! Congratulations :)
Great fob and the needlebook is gorgeous!
Beautiful Paula! The Blackbird stockings are stunning too.
Thanks for the needlebook tutorial link. I'm printing it off as I type. Your needlebook is just lovely.
the needlebook looks great. You did a wonderful job finishing that. I always put off the sewing till the last minute as well. I am much better at hand sewing than machine. BBD have the best designs.
