Three Pansy Watbo Scissor Keeper

During a holiday to the Far East, my husband and I spent time in Cambodia, and I visited Siem Reap where the night markets were simply stuffed full of cross stitch. The counted technique is commonly used on traditional costume, and even pleated skirts were covered in stitching. In many of the country villages stitched items were on sale and I have no idea how I did not buy them all! I did buy a woven key ring, which has inspired my shaped scissor fob. I have called this shape a Watbo after the Watbo Temple near the night market. A Watbo is made from three squares, and the making up is where the magic happens!
