Sewing Case for Cross Stitch

I decided to make another sewing case to use for Cross Stitch. I stitched embroidery stitches this time with all different flowers, and took pictures step by step. I also incorporated some small projects, which I made a long time ago.

My First Quilt Project

 

I started to learn about quilting, early this year. First I used one of my Cross Stitch Pieces to make into a Cross Stitch Project Pouch. This Cross Stitch piece was done in 2022, sitting in the closet for a while. I played around with fabric in several ways, such as colour match and size… etc., It took about a month to complete, and I’m proud of myself. First quilt job done…

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.

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.

More pouches....

20 pouches for gift use

I stitched initials for personal gift use.

More pouches

I sewed some small stitched pieces into pouches for gift use.

Music is my life

These three pouches I made for my choir conductor and friends, who also conduct. Design is a freebie from website “cross stitch about” but I don’t know whether it’s still available.

More Pouches

I stitched three small owl designs for fun and I decided to make these into pouches as gifts.They are all freebies from a website but I don't remember where I got these patterns as it's been a while ago. Thanks for offering these patterns.

Three bird egg & Star egg

I stitched two of three Ukrainian eggs from the Gift of Stitching, Issue 57. I made these into pouches to give as gifts for the future.

Quaker Pouch

I enjoyed stitching this lovely Quaker design from AMAP and made it into a pouch for cosmetics. I carry it in my purse all the time. I used DMC variegate floss. I tried to change the colours myself. I did one with some yellow and pink, but I didn’t quite like it, so I removed all the bright colours and changed them to blue tones. I love how it turned out.
