Vroom Vroom Vespa!

Hello lovelies!  I've got a little something to share with you today and by little I mean little.  I have recently finished a piece for another Craftster swap!  I haven't done one of those in ages!  I missed Craftster swaps and this tiny needlework swap was the perfect one to get me back in the swing of things. I had a super fab partner too, my friend Lisa!  I knew right away I wanted to stitch her a Vespa because she has one!  How cool is she right?  So here's her tiny Vespa.


The pattern is from here, I just shrunk it down quite a bit.  She also said she liked rainbows so I added some rainbow swirls firing out of the back.  The goal of this swap was to stitch something no bigger than two inches.  I would guess that the Vespa and the rainbow are about 2 inches wide.  I added a little eyelet along the bottom and then tucked it in a little wooden hoop I had on hand that I wrapped with some ribbon.  I was very pleased with how it turned out.



I loved this little swap.  It was fun and not a lot of stress.  Exactly the way crafting is supposed to be.   I loved this swap so much that I signed up for another one...Halloween In June!!  I can't wait to see what Lisa made for me!  I'll post as soon as I get it!! 

'Til then!
