What’s Happening?
Not a lot, it seems! I feel like I am busy doing lots of things but don’t have a lot to show for it. Very strange! A lot of time has been spent on fiddly things like preparing quilt tops for quilting and loads of cutting out. I have been adding the final borders to […]
Adding Colours.
I realised I hadn’t shared my progress with the Jacobean embroidery recently. It continues to grow slowly but steadily. I love the way the appearance changes when a few new and brighter colours are added.
Stitching Progress.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mums out there. Enjoy your special day! I have been working on this embroidery from Leanne Beasley of Leanne’s House. I only have to add the 3 butterflies – needle turn applique. And also making slow progress on the jacobean embroidery.
Christmas Trio.
I like the idea of trying to do Christmas projects early in the year so there isn’t a mad rush at the end. But, like many others, this plan does not always work. This little embroidery was started last year but never quite made it in time for December 25. So if I finish it […]
Framed Up.
Just catching up with a few posts this weekend and will then be away from the Internet for a few more days. I was able to collect my framed embroideries a week ago. I have a wall recently painted where I would like to hang a collection of embroideries and photos. I want all the […]
Embroidery Started.
I decided I needed to get back to some “formal” embroidery and challenge myself with more than a stitchery. This is a pattern from Daaft Designs and is making me use a lot of stitches that I haven’t used for quite a while. I think progress will be slow for a while, but I am […]
A Colourful Friday Valentine.
Another fortnight has snuck by and here we are at Colourful Friday. Today we have a focus on the colours for Valentine’s Day. Please take the time to visit Robyn at Daisy Quilts to see what everyone has found for this week. I seem to have concentrated mostly on reds and pinks, and also hearts […]
Welcome.
Another one of those found goodies! Finished! I just need to decide how to use it. This is a pattern provided by Leanne Beasley at one of the Glen Harrow stitching days. I am pleased that I am making a dent in the UFO pile.
Embroidered Hearts.
Over the past few weeks it has been a hive of activity in our house. We have been busy painting two bedrooms, cleaning carpets, decorating and setting up furniture. In the process I have managed to sort through a few storage boxes that have been waiting for over 3 years since we moved in. It […]
Needle-case.
This is a little needle case I made from a pattern by Mum’s Moments. Just the right amount of applique and embroidery. As I have been sorting through a few things I found that I had tucked this aside. Now it is back in use.
