Finish! One birthday item a month

Here's a book cover that I made up this morning using the bird I needle turned last night.  I used the same method as the other ones I have made as it has a nice finish.  The first photo isn't the best due to flash but the second photo is more like the colour of the fabric.

Katherine I love how you have put your little needleturned bird onto a circle surrounded by ricrac...it's very effective.
