I finished the tape measure yesterday. It went pretty well and I learned a lot along the way. So it's not perfect and the next one I make will be way better than this one.
This is the top:
This is the bottom:
I don't like the color of felt that I chose for the flower.
This is the band, it doesn't look very evenly spaced at places. I like how the beads were applied (coral stitch).
A bit wonky.
Then I realized that I forgot something on the Mermaid Purse - the spangles!
So I put them on and cut out the purse shape.
They add a bit of sparkle.
It will be fun to put this together with the purse frame that hopefully is coming in the mail.
Have a happy Sunday!
