CHALLENGE #24


Our challenge for you this month
is to:

Create a project based on
a favorite memory or
photo from YOUR childhood.




Our Sponsor is Lea from
and
seeing as all 100% of sales at 'Little Bits of Pretty'
are donated to the Westmead Children's Hospital,
we thought it would be fitting to have a child based challenge.

The story behind this fundraiser is here

2 crocheted flowers
8 doilies
2 covered buttons made from embroided doilies
5 assorted buttons

handmade butterfly embellishment
4 journal tags
20+ vintage papers-dictionary, picture book, cookbooks, bible, sewing pattern paper, music paper, bookpaper
