Brown Paper Bag, Sort Of


It's meant to look like brown paper. It's really a linen blend from my stash.


And I wanted it to look like Daisy had glued on a paper flower--so I used a vintage applique (with "cut here" lines around the design) and machine-zigzagged it on.


For that little bit of scallopy texture at the top of a paper bag, I just did a handsewn running stitch. They aren't actual scallops but they do break up that top line.

This one was a commission, and won't go in the shop.
