Just wanted to share with you my latest sewing project. An alternative christmas tree.
I added a layer of padding and backed it in a plain material...then added small red ribbons here and there. I chose a gold bias binding to edge it all. Finally I sewed two thin strips on the back to incase 2 thin wooden batons ,one at the top and one at the bottom.
So lovely and bright....hope my customer enjoys it for years to come...

Time for some little strawberries....This is such a sweet little pattern I found on Pinterest.

BLOOMS
Just finished cross stitching the first of two towels. Took many hours but worth it.
I have made them as a present for a very special person.
Hope to make myself a pair identical.
They look so pretty.

ROSE
Made a sweet little bag today. Actually its classed as a "Coat hook bag" where one handle is much longer than the other. The bag is closed by pushing the largeloop through the small hoop.
I cross stitched Roses are Red onto a strip of Aida , infact I cross stitched a few of these ready for further use, then after visiting a fabric store I stumbled across this wonderful material which seemed an ideal choice.
This is a longer bag , the sheen on this material is beautiful.
These are the materials I bought.......
Pattern for the cross stitch and idea for the bag comes from this Book...
