I couldn't waste the sample I made for the previous post, so I fashioned it into this:

A simple wallet to hold those other things I keep losing down the back of the sofa - you know - usb flash drive, sewing machine memory card, software dongles! I lined it with polyester suede and it fastens with a machine wrapped cord with a loop and beads.
Then I made these brooches:

The biggest ones measure about 2.5 inches. I used the left-over fabric from making the little dolls (two posts ago), added trellis stitch and embellishments, padded, backed with craft vilene (pellon) and felt and zigzagged together on the sewing machine.

I love the way you have used trellis stitch, fantastic. Like the spectacles holder too
Your brooches are so lovely - I love them !!
These are very sweet. I may have to begin to use my sewing machine a bit more....as you know hand work is extremely time consuming.
Thanks again for sharing...you're an inspiration!
I really like this wallet and the trellis stitch sits just fine on it!
I'm afraid I've gone from admiring to coveting your wallet!
I like the textured and abstract purse!
