My 5 year old buddy Mikel is graduating
from pre-school next week,
so I made him this embroidered linen folder cover
so he can show off all of his work in style
on graduation day :)

He is a big soccer fan.
I did the lettering with my alphabet hand carved stamps
and a white ink pad and embroidered the rest.
And I used natural linen
and a striped cotton fabric to do the cover.

one for Israel, one for Daniel, and one for me :)
We're practicing every day and maybe
we'll have our own circus act in the future!
I made them using the pattern
in Denyse Schmidt "Quilts" book,
with linen, cotton fabric
and filled them up with rice.
