Angel of Romance



Here she is and all nice and framed.

Start of a new Quilt

This is the first of my Halloween quilt
and it was on hold for a long time as
I did not know how I was going to
get my picture onto the black fabric.
I have discovered through my quilt
group a wonderful thing called
tear away paper and I transferred
the picture onto it and then embroidered
on the tear away and fabric, wow
this is what I got and am so glad about
this paper as it is not as hard as ordinary paper
and also tears away easy.

Faries in Shoeland


My Fairies in Shoeland is now framed and it looks just great.
Always glad when something is completed all together.

Cross stitching project

I have now completed my 12 Angels
and also the beading has been done.
Now to decide what to do with them
should I make them into small quilts
or should I frame them, will
leave them in the back of my mind
until I make a decision.

This is January till July










This is August till December

Stitchery


this is a stitchery from the magazine
Homespun and just love it.
This will be one of the pockets
for my bag that I will be making some
time soon, because my daughter
wanted the one I had previously
made for myself.





These are some stitcheries that
I started a while back and have
now completed the embroidery.
I now have an idea about completed
them and will do that later.












There are seven of them



This is the wonderful fabrics I received
from Tippy and just love them


This is an embroidery from
a Homespun magazine and I am
going to put these sequence on
it. It will look just great and
this is the front of a recipe book
cover.




There is what it looks like with the
fabric around
