To Err is Human

I do make quite a few mistakes during my sewing days and quite often end up chopping up bits that I don't want to go to waste. Yesterday, whilst in one of my tidy up modes (which does not happen very often), I came across a stash of such mistakes. Of course, not wanting to tidy I immediately started playing and experimenting.

I had been cutting out my brooch tags earlier in the day and soon was busy sewing said mistakes to brooch tags to create a little bunch of tags.



I also managed to make a little fabric tag whilst I was at it.  So much for having a tidy up, will leave that for another day.

Thanks to Pinterest I have just found your gorgeous brooches and other goodies that you are and sell on folksy. I googled Pants & Paper and am delighted to have found you have a blog too. I love the tags that you have created from your 'mistakes' Or I would say 'happy accidents' and look forward to seeing more of your lovely creations from across the miles here in France.
