Pattern Book for SEWN

 

The assignment this week in the SEWN class by Mary Ann Moss is to make a book with a cover of patterns.
I used papers I collect in a box after I do other projects. Tidbits, snippets, things I just can’t quite throw away.

I chose a hexagon for the shape, then sewed the pieces I’d adhered to a piece of cardstock lightly with a glue stick.

I added some washi tape to finish the edges inside and out and also adhered a piece of see through paper to the inside just to finish it off. It is some handmade paper with a circular pattern – a bit hard to see, but I like how the sewing shows through but is also covered up a bit.

I put some vintage buttons on the string – some from my collection that I love.

Can’t wait to see what is next in the class. Enjoying it a lot.
