Little Stitch book by Christina Fairley Erickson
Hand-dyed wool/acrylic felt, hand stitched with hand-dyed and
commercial pearl cotton, embroidery floss and yarn |

I’m still a little unhappy with my binding, but I think it may just require more practice to get it right. Since this was my first time to actually complete a hand-made book, I’m pretty happy with it.
