Free Quilled School Bus Pattern |
This project is a throwback to a pattern I have posted in the past, but it is perfect for the beginning of the school year. I love this sweet school bus because he really has a personality. Can't you see the face within the coils?
Do you have children going to school, or do you have pictures from the first day of school that screaming at you to please put them in your scrapbook? Well, here is the perfect embellishment for you!
This is my Safety First School Bus pattern - as always, I try to keep these patterns simple. They use only the basic shapes so even beginners can create them.
