I hope you are all staying warm on this cold Monday morning! It is 15 degress and snowing here in St. Louis.
Back to the sampler...I decided to create a pocket on the front of the sampler with the eyelet trim and the quilt piece. After sewing the sides, I sewed a short line above the pink trim of the eyelet to form the bottom of the pocket. I sewed a cute little flower applique onto the center of the quilt piece, and then I secured the triangular quilt piece in place by sewing a button on the top 2 corners. I added another decorative button to the center of the rick rack and it is finished! I like the cherries so much that I didn't want to cover it all up! And by creating a pocket, I have a place to tuck in a card or tag... tune in tomorrow to see what I tucked in there and how I wrapped it all up.

Love it!!!
Oh this is a gem! What a creative flair you have - I adore ric-rac and use it often on my cards and cherries - well those are just as sweet as it gets! Love your pocket project ~ TFS! ♥
This sampler is wonderful! Those cherries are great...they always take me back to the 50s. We've gone UP to 6 degrees here at 2pm...all I want to do is go back to bed!
