The "Easter SAL" into a flatfold!!

I sure love how this turned out, though it took me a couple of days to really decide with the backing fabric as i had in mind to use some kind of green but i don't have the appropriate color green that was used with the stitching so i opted out with this pink one.



Many many thanks to Carole for sharing this lovely design. I really enjoyed stitching and making different finishes with some of the designs from it.

I hope everyone's having a lovely week and enjoying the spring sunshine. Thank you all for visiting and all the kind comments.
