Mail Art

Today I want to introduce the small mail art made for a wonderful lady I met while in Holland last year. It took me a while to finish it because I wanted it to be something different. I used silk floss for the whole project and a bead crochet carnation with a mother-of-pearl button for the closure. Ever since I got to learn of darning, especially the darning samplers which I find fascinating, I chose to use a small darning pattern to enrich my little souvenir.
