Thread Holder All Done!

Thread holder is finished! It is ready to hold my thread ends from various other projects which I may start to work on.  All those stippling running stitches gave the fabric great texture and a cozy feel. I decided to use a magenta pink quilting thread so the quilting is visible. Its been a long time since I quilted.

Love this 2014 Hoffman Challenge fabric (for a change!).  It isn't the main fabric and maybe that is the reason I like it :-).  I have yet to tackle the main fabric.  I am procrastinating as usual.

I made this one an inch larger than Leanne's.

What a fun thread holder! I like it a lot. Did you zig-zag the sides closed? Or hand ladder stitch? I may have to add this to the ever growing to-do list. ;-)

Thanks Tami. I used ladder stitch. It hardly takes any time to make one unless you plan to embellish it. I had to stop myself from taking my beads out. If I did, I would not finish it anytime soon.:-)
