I recently did some napkins for my husband's silent auction at work. I did these 4 season trees using some beautiful DMC variegated embroidery floss.
I did 4 more cocktail napkins also. The napkins were not the best cotton ones but I liked stitching the patterns! I used patterns from Doodle Stitching: The Motif Collection. http://www.dreamfollow.com/book.html
This is a great book with a wide variety of patterns to fit all sorts of occasions.
These are the quilts I have completed for my nephews! They will be so excited to get them! In the mail and hopefully in their hands on Friday!
Sublime Stitching: http://www.sublimestitching.com/ is having a little contest to see who's embroidery gets to be the newest shown on the website! I was not sure about how to stitch this. This is not a patten I would have normally picked to do, so it was nice to have something challenging. LOVE the french knot hair and I was particularly proud of the girl in blue. I was the first to post for the contest so I have not yet been able to compare mine to anyone else's. We'll see how I fair among the experts out there! Could be a LOOOONNNGGGG shot but I wanted to try something new!
Going to run the Bolder Boulder on Monday! Okay, Okay not run but wog (jog/walk)!!! Here's to hoping I don't come in last of 50,000 runners!
Happy crafting! :-)
