Business card holder

What a strange summer we're having. It's hot, it's wet, and it's almost over.... 
I borrowed Kate Golda's "Hand-Stitched Felt" from the Bendigo library and sat watching the Top Gear "3 wise men" (screamer!) 2010 Christmas special stitching this sweet little business card holder using the teensiest pieces of felt scraps.  The aim is that it will hold the copious number of coffee loyalty cards that are currently crowding out my purse. :-)  There's a slightly larger version in the book too which is used for carrying photos. Might be a good Mothers' Day idea for our kids to make for their Grannies? I think I'll include that on the Term 1 Sew Much Talent program.
My son Max (9) attended the Art Gallery today for a kids' workshop where they viewed the current exhibition Your Move and then created their own board game.  Max loved it and came home with a Karate-based gamed that we are looking forward to playing over our coco pops tomorrow.   I hope you're enjoying your holidays too.  Kristen x
