From the mixed up files of Mrs., um, well, anyway. It's just the right size to go on a pocket. That is, if you like cream colored crocheted tidbits.
A number of years ago I heard about pattern books that held snips and tidbits of crochet in them. The books were made of cotton fabric and the tidbits were then attached to the pages with sewing thread. I guess fabric was more plentiful than paper at that time and wouldn't leave marks on the tidbits. I keep thinking I'd like to create one of those pattern books for myself -- that's probably one reason why I've kept my snips and tidbits all these years.
The other reason is I want to get back into crazy quilting and you need lots of things to embellish a crazy quilt. I've been collecting photos from the internet of various crazy quilts to use as inspiration for my needlework. Hopefully this summer I'll be able to get more needlework done than during the school year.
