Today I finished my godmother's bag and today is her actual birthday, but she won't be getting it for a while as she got a 3am flight to Portugal for a couple of weeks this morning! (it's alright for some!)
I am ridiculously pleased with how it turned out and want to take it everywhere with me just to show anyone who will look, so if she doesn't like it I will happily take it back!
So here are a couple of pictures of the finished item (it needs a good press but the iron is currently on strike so you will have to imagine no creases)
I really like the hand stitched spoked on the London Eye and the Mathmatical Bridge.
After finishing this bag I am thinking of other cities that I can make into a skyline. I have some friends still living in Lincoln (who I went to uni with) who have brought a house that they are doing up and I'm thinking a picture or cushion with the Lincoln skyline on as a present for them.
I also want to make an olympics and jubilee version for myself too! Now I just need to find some more hours in the day and all will be good!
