Description
Lions, Tigers, and Trims-Oh My!
Erica Michaels
**Needlework Expo 2021 Preorder**
This pretty trim roll is the result of a collaboration with Lois Mourisksi Bear of Lady Dot Creates and me – and we had a grand time.
Lady Dot hand dyes quite an array of trims in lovely colors, and both trim rolls shown here highlight that in a couple of different ways. Plus, in addition to two alternate designs for the outside of the roll – one with the title’s lion, tiger and bear – and the other with an alphabet, you also get four more outtakes to use for pockets and pin cushions. The design is charted for just two related colors, and can also be stitched in one color only.
Notes for supplies listed here are for the models as shown.
