Take a Word Challenge - Sewing

For some reason I thought of the old fairy story about the shoemaker and the elves where the overworked shoemaker went to sleep and woke to find that the elves had completed his work.  Wouldn't it be nice to have a sewing fairy to do the same thing?
My fairy is from a collage sheet by E-vint.com (altered and coloured). Sewing essentials are from JenU Designs.

    That sewing machine looks just like my Aunt's Singer treadle machine! There was a time, when I was making most of my daughter's clothes and my own, when I wished for a sewing fairy! What a great idea. Beautifully done, as always.
