I finished up my scissor case over the weekend. I'm very pleased with how it turned out. Two down and ?? to go. :-) I really don't know how many little treats are coming with our casket class (I have instructions for four or five at this point). I laced up the next one and started stitching - it's a little pin cushion. I'll take a photo the next time I work on it.
Here are my two little treasures together. These will have a home in the casket someday.
This is a set of hand made needlework tools I purchased from the UK. They are made of English Yew and are all hand turned. I'll need them for the stumpwork that I'm doing on the casket. Of course I don't know how to use them yet but that will come in the second 18 month course. I can't wait.

Congratulations, the scissor case is gorgeous
That scissor case/glove is stunning Margie! I envy your taking this class, but there's no way I could have finished a piece like that.
Enjoy it! :)
Really lovely - so delicate and elegant!
The glove scissors case is beautiful, an heirloom. Wonderful piece for your casket
My goodness that is so different and absolutely special. Lovely tools - I have no idea what they do but they look good!
The smalls are beautiful. The needlework tools are jawdropping.
What a beautiful scissor case! I don't know that I would have the patience for the finishing on that one. But I admire you for doing it!
Beautiful finish and love the tools!
That one is really cute and awesome for a scissor holder. I thought it was a keychain. Hope you could make one for me too. Just kidding! But if you can, be my guest. I really love it honestly! I hope you could make other colorful designs of it. Thanks again!
