Birthday card. Redid the card and made a 'normal' machine embroidery, this time for an alomost 4 yr old girl. I like the other one better.
Birthday card. I wanted to create a free embroidery impression, but do it on the embroidery machine. The tiny bunting pieces made it rather fiddly. So I think I'll change it to a normal ME design.
I changed the 'nun' to a penguin, a dark grey one by want of black felt.
Finger puppet penguin. Had some small pieces of black felt left, just enough to make what with some imagination looks like a penguin.

Sue's basket. Simply HAD to make one. It stitches like a treat, hardest part is sewing the seams together. Now I have to go look for a matching ribbon. Thanks Sue!
Towels An acquaintance asked me to embroider 3 towels for a grandnephew of hers. He was born in the year of the dragon under Aquarius and named after a Dutch river, the Maas. So there had to be a dragon, something river-like and his name. This is w
ITH bunny 4x4 Sue asked me to resize my ITH bunny to fit a 4x4 hoop. I lowered the density of the fill stitches in the ear and the snout. Stitching took 5 minutes, turning it right side out turned out to be an exercise for nimble fingers. But
Has anyone seen a nice little dragon, please? I've got a lot of animals, but no dragons. Thanks in advance.
