Scrap-365 sketch challenge

 This sketch caught my eye in the June edition of Scrap-365. I was really pleased to find, when I checked out the blog, that it is this month’s sketch challenge. Here’s my page. The hand-drawn and stitched Eiffel Tower took an absolute age, but I am pleased I persevered.
