April Snow Hearts.
April in the northern hemisphere is said to bring April showers. I would love to have some April showers here, too. It is still very dry and the garden would love a drop of rain. Together with Joan, Shez and Jeanette, I have completed the snow hearts for April from the pattern by Bunny Hill […]
Woolly Zip Bag.
Yay! A woolly finish!. I have completed the wool embroidery, stitched it all up and made a thread carry bag. Each side is different. I have used a Kaffe Fassett stripe for the binding and handles. A small piece of braid covers the join between front and back. When it is open there are four […]

A year or two back, Bunny Hill Designs had free patterns for some heart decorations. I was not able to make them at the time but after a chat with Shez we decided to stitch along together and make one each month as per the original follow along. Thanks Shez, for keeping me on track. […]
Pin Cushion Play.
Over the last two weeks I have been able to attend a class with Nicole at Sewing Connection to work on Sue Spargo style embroidery and wool work. It has been wonderful to learn about a variety of techniques when working with wool and finding out about the various threads to use for this embroidery. […]
