Xmas Craftin'

Here are some more things I've made.


Here are some more pillows I made! Making pillows is fun and I'm learning a lot in the process. The first is from the Black Apple/Sublime Stitching pattern. You can't really tell, but I weaved some glow in the dark thread on the ghost and on the first, middle, and last roof tops. I was proud of that. I wish I could get a picture of the glow but that never really shows up in pics.  At least not the little digital thing I have.


And, here is one I did from a Red Velvet Art pattern. It's my favorite.

Red Velvet Art Cupcakes!
Last but not least, this is from The Little Prince.
I can't wait to give all of these gifts to my friends. I really hope they like them!

More Handmade Christmas

I like that I can embroider things for people because I think I am the worst gift-giver. I just don't know what to get people.  So I make stuff.  

Here is a pillow I made for a friend of mine. It's from the fan dancer pattern in the Sublime Stitching Embroidered Effects book. It's the first pillow I've ever made! I've got four more to make. I'm quite proud of that stitching...

And here is another Natalie Dee inspired piece. I made it for my work friend Brooke who loves Natalie Dee.

Other Goodies

I made this for my friend Lynn from an Urban Threads pattern. www.urbanthreads.com
I made this apron using a Red Velvet Art font and some tarts I made out of felt that are also inspired by a Red Velvet Art tote. www.redvelvetart.com

That's all for now! I gotta get back to it!
