She had listed 'floral' as one of the themes she likes and given that we're heading into spring, I thought a simple flower inspired design would be nice.
I used linen and quilting cottons for the foundation. The flowers are made of felt and were stitched on with embroidery floss then finished off with a variety of white buttons. The stems were embroidered as well.
The quote is by Ralph Waldo Emerson. I stamped it on a piece of linen using permanent ink then sewed it to the foundation with a zig-zag stitch.
I can't wait to see the amazing cover that Judy is making for me. Check out the gallery to admire some of the great covers others have made!

This is such a pretty flower. I found your blog today through Pinterest and love it!!!
The pillow you made is just lovely. I like all the detail on it.
This and your journal cover are such great projects! I love the color palette you used. Oh, and I forgot to say it's great that another blogger is working on the 1-2-3 Sew challenge too!!! It would be cool if we could all link up posts somehow- what do you think?
