~ finished!!
I wanted to keep it very simple & old looking ~
i left it sparse and muted,
then stained it just a *bit* more...
I added the little wool heart as a place to park your needles & pins
and it rolls up to tie with hand dyed silk ribbon ~
backed with the same wool as the little heart ~I had fun designing & stitching this for the
Samplermakers Autumn Stitcher's Challenge ~
