This piece was inspired by my favorite wildflower...violets. They are blooming everywhere!! It seems to be a good year for them.
This sewing keep is covered in a green homespun linen type fabric. On top of the box are a bouquet of violets hand-stitched on an aged piece of osnaburg. With old batting sandwiched between, I stitched this to the box. Added to the top are a few pretty vintage hatpins.
The inside lid is lined with aged paper with a sweet poem about violets.
Tucked inside is a blue strawberry scissors fob made from the best old velvet and vintage green wool. The scissors are old also! I've also thrown in an old thimble and a handful of buttons.
This piece measures 5 by 3 1/2 and is almost 3" tall. It is a "one of a kind" original by Rabbit Hill Primitives.
