Today's Inspiration Challenge is at the Victorian Trading Company...wow, what a fabulous site! I found this UMBRELLA which had me reaching for the MFT Mini Rolled Rose Die-namics and the red felt! The umbrella is black and red but I added in some green. I also used the MFT sketch this week - I forgot the last panel and had to add it on after I sewed the other two strips down, so the panels are layered in a different order! Going out for a walk - gotta take advantage of the sunshine, we don't get it much here in Ireland!
More on my blog.

Bridget, this is a real beauty. I love, love, love your umbrella and your beautiful colors. Love the dimension and stitching. (I can't tell which panel is out of order. Looks perfectly planned to me.)
