Description
Luscious strawberries are fun to eat but even more fun to have by your side as your favourite sewing accessories!
Sumptuous candy apple red velvet is used to shape the body of each berry and each one is studded with sparkling glass beads to replicate the seeds. Lime green sepals are fashioned by cleverly folding a strip of organza for the pincushion and silk ribbon for the scissor fob and the stalks are formed with twisted cords.
Layers of sand and wool roving fill the large berry while emery powder and wool roving fill the small fob berry, perfect for keeping needles and pins bright and sharp.
