Alter it at La-La Land Crafts

Morning everyone its time for our Monday Inspiration at La-La Land Crafts and this week we have something a bit different an altered project .I decided the pot that i store my pencils in could do with a makeover so i used some scraps of material i had left over from a bag i made a few weeks ago and sewed a patchwork cover (watch this space for the quilt im making have become rather addicted to quilting now !!lol as if i didn't have enough to do already !!) I thought sweet little Colouring Marci would be perfect ive coloured her with copics , i also used one of my fave dies Scallop Border to cut out the trim for the top in felt
