Life is a Stitch

                            I initially planned to make these into masks, but I changed my mind.

               I made one as a pouch instead as I had made three masks already with quaker designs.

   The other one I just stitched all space of fabric, but I don’t have any idea what to make with it.

I'm back

 

It has been a long time since my last posting on Aug/2021. I have completed many small projects during this time, some of which were pincushions, pouches, needle books, etc. I will post each project one by one. The first one is an Alphabet design from the Brookbanks free pattern. I stitched F, S, X and Y and made them into ornaments  

I also found two more(B & P) that I did in 2010. One day I hope to complete all 26 letters in the alphabet.  They are so cute and pretty. I love them so much.

Small projects

 Santa Star, designed by Fricia Wilson Nguyen, freebie. I Stitched two piece of Santa for small gift.

Scissors dolly by Dorothy Hall. This is my 6th time of stitching, one in 2006 and 4 more in 2007. I use them for door hanger or purse charm. They are cute.

                                       Christmas Ornaments from The Prairie Schooler Inc., 

12 days of Christmas

 I stitched 2 sets of the ""12 days of Christmas" on Apr 17, designed by Sue Hills Design. I made them into a pin cushions to arrange on wreaths.

Friends

I stitched four pouches of "Friends" about 4 months ago, and I gave three of them as a gift for a friend. It's from a freebie design by Mani Di Donna (Italy)., It's a lovely pattern.

H is for Home

 

I was organizing my old cross stitch binder and came across an unfinished project that I recently just completed.  I call it H is for HOME.  The design came from a July/Aug 1991 issue of Cross Stitch & Country Crafts, and I must have started it sometime in 1991 or 1992. I'm happy I completed it after all these years.
