Aren't these gorgeous? I did the first one this morning on one layer of glitter organza and the second one on two layers. I think I'll continue with the two layers for the rest of them. They are from Embroidery Online and I bought this design as part of a pack of 8 for $20.00.

If you notice on the towels I made earlier I used this design on a couple, it's called Poinsettia. These are just little Christmas decorations made in my 5x7 hoop. Each lady will get one for their Christmas tree.

I've been home most of the day as we had tradesmen putting in our new wardrobes in the upstairs 3 bedrooms, they look so fresh, clean and beautiful. Can't wait for the new internal doors now, they will be going in on either Thursday or Friday now - was meant to be tomorrow, but they had some issues at the previous people's home they were working on. The renovations are looking great and coming along slowly!

Love Chris

Wow they are beautiful! I might just have to go and have a look for these. Something a little different from the snowflakes and angels I give at Christmas

Thanks Sewmum1, I love the way they have done them on the website, but I decided to use the Crystal Organza, it's a bit lighter. I still put a layer of WSS on it, just to give it a bit of stiffness. Love Chris

Hi Sandra, thanks for this lovely message. There are no instructions for making them applique, so I just added the crystal organza as the backing as you would a stabiliser and placed the WSS on top. Then I had to carefully cut the organza away as close as I could because normally there is a step you do to tackle that. They didn't turn out too bad though! Love Chris

Yep! They are gorgeous! Thanks for the extra info about how you made them. The little extra sparkle really enhances them. You come up with the best ideas! I'm anxious to see what you do next and your finished table setting!

Hi Lily, thank you. I was in our department store David Jones on Friday 1st September and they were putting up Christmas decorations. I said "Oh! my goodness, this is just way too early to be doing this" - they just smiled and said it's what they were told to do. I don't think we need anything like that put up till at least late October. It's just getting too commercial for my liking. Love Chris

Thanks Lynn, only have 6 more to do. We're moving all the furniture from room to room at the moment and the place looks like a bomb has hit it. Never mind, come Saturday we'll have a lot taken away to Mum's place as she wants one of our lounge suites. Love Chris

UPDATE: I made a small one and finished the others a bit larger as per the original ones. I decided to keep 2 layers of crystal organza. Love Chris
