When your daughter is nearly 16 with decided taste on all matters of utmost importance (Lady Gaga? no ~ She and Him, yes. Twilight? no ~ anything by Wes Anderson, yes. Pretty boys? no ~ geeks, yes) ... it can be a little difficult making just the right thing for her palette. I'm happy to say that 'linen + sequins' was a yes...
Linen scraps, crochet trim, a bit of calico, and some shiny sequins (I think these were part of a card making kit Anne received as a gift many moons ago)... easy peasy! I'm seeing linen + sequin stars, next.
