Cross stitch pincushion I digitised and stitched out today, front and back took 10 minutes each, on top of part of a piece I have been working on for years. That one has 14 threads or 7 crosses to the cm and is a bit hard on my (current) eyesight.

Notebook cover I love the embroidered "bumad" - the regional dress of Norway, often worn at weddings or on May 17th, the national feastday. Embroidery is wool on wool, often still made by hand at home. I digitised my take on a design (th

Tray cloth or placemat? Don't know what it is going to be. I just had to try and make the design to fit my largest hoop (200x360 mm). It has 33011 stitches and took a long time to stitch. But I could never have done it by hand in one and a half ho
