Hi Cuties, this post is a HUGE SHOUT OUT to my dear friend Kim (dragonflyer) who helped me out tremendously with a design I needed. Kim went above and beyond to do these stemmed glass coaster slippers for me. Kim is just so clever and I really appreciate all the effort she put into making it for me.

She is a real gem. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Kim, love Chris

Thanks Caroline, yes, she is. The runner was a Sweetpea design I did a few years ago. I actually used part of the design in my Frangipani backpack I made last year. Love Chris

Love the fabric, they look very pretty.
I usually do things like that on the sewing machine, but to get them all even an embroidery design helps tremendously, it takes all the guess work out. I even digitised a row of buttonholes for a dress pattern I often use for charity sewing - gets them perfect anytime.

That's a brilliant idea Martine. I love buttonholes that look perfecct. I can do them on the sewing machine too, but I found that these are gorgeous done in the hoop. Love Chris

Thanks so much Kim, you made me look very good. Amy was thrilled with them. She was going to sew them with me, but they've gone up to Nelson Bay ( to visit with their friends that they are house-sitting for!!). So I'm glad I've got them done.
I can see me using these for lots of occasions. Love Chris
