This little Tilda took awhile for me, she is a combination of challenges...but I learned a lot!!
The Tilda's apron and hair bow are paper pieced, and the little butterfly she is holding in her outstretched arm is from a K&CO pack of 3 D's...they have come in so handy!
The nestability was antiqued with Tim Holtz Distress ink in tattered rose.
Thanks Joanne, for these beautiful primas, they were perfect for Tilda!!
Linda B, (hearth_cricket) kept me in good supply with this wonderful K&CO paper packs and ribbon, thanks friend!!
Thanks for taking a look,
