My First Craft

I made this awhile ago, but I'm kinda proud of it. I was bored one day waiting in the long hours the cable people say they will be there and having been dragged around by them all day I needed something to keep my mind off the waiting. I went home the weekend before and packed up my sewing machine, but forgot it when I left early. I needed to do something crafty that day; it was just one of those days. I knew I had felt, I knew I had embroidery thread and I definitely had time. 

I chose my large felt, pink, and two scrap pieces, orange and blue. I folded and pinned. I cut the flowers and chose where to place them. I threaded the needle and sewed the flowers on, orange then blue. I pinned again and sewed the folds. I sewed up the edges and I think the end result looks pretty good.

I don't know what I'm going to use it for yet or if I'm actually done with it. I've been thinking of adding a zipper. Maybe it could be a make up bag? Maybe a pencil case? The possibilities are endless.
