And one more makes 5

Just had to make one more for my DD - before Christmas last year I made her a sewing tidy - here - and this year as part of her Christmas present I made her a cover for her machine, so I thought I better add a Thread Catcher as well . . .


Gotta stop - (soon) - I could get a head start on February!!

Looks great. I like the way the stripes are reversed on the lining.
