Just a few coin purses fused and cut.
Next up: fuse the labels then overlock the edges, then sew them up, and finally, trim, turn and press.
How many do you reckon are here?
And how many did you reckon I’ll get stitched in the next 24 hours (I’ll run out of zips for some…)?

Little Stranger
A tauhou (commonly called silvereye or waxeye due to the white ring marking around their eyes) feeding on a kōwhai flower. The Māori name, tauhou, means 'stranger' or 'new arrival'.

I didn't much feel like photographing today, so I was hoping I could get something decent through the window! This is a pretty serious crop of a larger image, but I like the way the tree in the background frames the subject.

8/365
