Mouthy Stitches - zoom, zoom...

Procrastination almost cost me a spot on the very popular Mouthy Stitches Swap - this one is for a zippy pouch and a fat quarter's worth of scraps and is being hosted by Swap Mammas Susan, Hadley and Cindy.  Susan previously hosted the Christmas Tablerunner swap that I participated in - and had such a great time (and received an awesome table runner to boot!) but spent sooooooo much time looking at and commenting on the posts and pictures of other swappees that I got pressure sores on my backside!!  Given that from next month I have lessons and school and lots of the other sewing to do, the procrastination started - and luckily I was able to fight my way through with harking back to my new life maxim - follow your bliss.  I found a lot of bliss and satisfaction in the MCTR swap so expect to really enjoy this one too - the mosaics on Flickr are gorgeous..  I haven't figured out how to add the Mouthy Stitches button as yet, but this is my inspiration mosaic for my secret partner...

Simple, screen printed fabrics, a little linen, a little hand sewing with perle thread and a boxy shape - perfick!
