My First Padfolio

I have been wanting to make one of these Padfolios for a while now and I have finally done it.
I first saw one on Sue B's blog and you can now get the pattern free from the Fibre and Stitch web site (just click on the logo below)





I made it from fabric that I created on my Embellisher (another first) and the wool was purchased from the Thread Studio. I did some hand stitching in running stitch to add some extra texture and I used a variegated thread in the same colours as the wool.

I used a 100% cotton homespun for the lining.

I enjoyed making this in the end and don't know why I felt uneasy about attempting it before.
I think I will make some more for gifts now.
