These photos come from my newest swatch order. I recently damaged my digital camera's screen so that I can't actually see when taking my pictures; this batch of pictures reflects that.

Here's a sweet frog I made using a free pattern by Purl Bee . I scaled the pattern down to fit on an 8" x 8" swatch of fabric. For the top portion, I used my Dandelions test swatch, And I hand embroidered the little eyes. Here's a view of the top. And for the bottom of the frog, I used my Small  Flowers in Golden Summer  test swatch. Here's a picture of the underside of the frog. The frog is filled with rice since I didn't have any of the beans she suggested on hand. Here is a small over-the-shoulder bag where I used my A Mouse and An Owl I . fabric. You can see here where I whip stitched it onto the flap by hand after making the rest of the purse. I finger knitted the long handle out of yarn and machine stitched it in place I used an old button and some brown thread to create the closure.
