Here's one of the Christmas gifts I made. I loved embroidering on a neutral print. It gives the pillow so much more personality.
Golden Needle Designs has the most wonderful little elves. I sewed some for Christmas, but I asked Janet if I could add designs other than the December themed ones. She very graciously said it was fine, so I sewed some of these out. I did enlarge th
I am fussy about having felt edges show, so when I made these little elves/gnomes, I repeated the stitch for hat placement so that I knew where the fabric had to be, then flipped it after it was stitched. By that I mean, instead of stitching the hat righ
New Year's Resolution I keep trying to return to my former productivity, but life just seems to interfere. Well, I am going at least to try to post some of my projects. First is a cheap way of making stand up stuffed items. Many of you probably
An outfit for grand-daughter Carmen. Well, life threw me a few twists and turns, but I am again able to share some of my projects with you all. The design is from Urban Threads. Their recent sale was great! Though I modified the purse to be able to s

It's my GD Abby-Sue's birthday soon. I was inspired by all of toogie's booties, so I decided to make her a pair. I used a pattern from Green Pepper, but the design I can't recall. Then, I used a design I had gotten from Augusta's blog when they
Another tablecloth and a dozen napkins set for newlyweds. I am hesitant to put these pictures up because for the life of me, I can't recall where the designs are from. I just have them in a file called Medieval Perhaps another Cutie can recognize th
I have a two year old grandson with a g-tube. My daughter asked me to make him some cute and functional g-tube pads. Here are a few of the ones I came up with. I use three layers of flannel and sew the design so that it can be turned right side out. H
Here's a small tut for sewing out the mini composition book covers. I'm afraid it will only help those who can "fool around" with existing designs in some sort of software. I can't digitize yet, or I would be able to offer you the very simple outli
I love the mini book covers that mops and others have made in the past. I wanted to make some also. You know, the ones you can get at dollar stores for 3/$1. I found a basic outline frame that I thought would work, changed the size to 122mmx200 to fit m
Tablecloth and Twelve Napkins. I made these for a coworker of my DH. She was recently married. The acorn is from Embroidery Library, and the center design on the tablecloth is the acorn with a design from Ageless Embroidery. It isn't shown here, b
When bunnyhop described how to melt images onto candles, I was hooked!! I took the Embroidery Library design of this bee (which I LOVE LOVE LOVE) and made a tablecloth, 12 napkins, and a couple of candles as a set for my newly married son and his lovely
I found these great mugs at WorldMarket. I made a mug rug and napkin to create a set for gift giving.
One of babolucia's bibs for 5X7 users... I so wanted to make some of those beautiful bibs, but I only have a 5X7 hoop. So...after a bit of thought, I figured out a way to do so. I sent babolucia a pm and she said I could show you all. Thank you so much
