At my Ladies day last Monday, one of my friends had two things that might interest some of you. The first is a Christmas decoration. 3 Circles cut about 5 inches in diameter. You then fold the edge about a quater of an inch and gather around the edge. Pull the gathering into a circle. Do this with the 3 circles. Join the three with just a couple of stitches at the top and bottom. Stitch a button on the gathered edge and a bell and ribbon on the bottom and a length of ribbon on the top to hang the ornament.

Must admit I took nothing to do last Monday as I have been stitching FSL on my machine. One of the ladies gave me one of these to do. She comes up with so many ideas.

This would be an excellent project to work with small children on.

Or even big ones.

Of course big ones too and the little ones can learn to do a running stitch.

Also very easy to make. She gets some really great ideas. Like me she gets them from others.

Again it is easy. My friend used Christmas Fabric, but think they would look nice in any colourful fabric.

It is the FSL Cameo. A friend had it on Monday. I can only assume she bought it as none of my group have an embroidery machine
