Today's Project ~ Save my Sweater

I have a lovely cashmere sweater that I love, but it has a small moth-hole in a rather conspicuous place.

It's been sitting in my closet for months, waiting for inspiration on how I can cover it up.

Today, I remembered the drawer in my jewelry chest filled with sparkly brooches I've received from work.  It's not total inspiration, but it's a start.
