Dandelion Embroidery



I am making my friend Emily a purse! Full disclosure - I started this purse two years ago... opps. Another one of my scary "I don't know how to finish this" projects. I bought the handle online and designed a purse shape to fit it. Then I sketched out an idea for the embroidery. They are dandelions with their petals blowing in the wind! 


Cute lining - slightly wonkily attached.

I lined the inside with leftover quilting cotton from a quilt my sister made years ago. I love the bright-light blue with the yellow and navy.




Now I just need to add a handle and send it off. I will post a picture of the finished piece!
