Hi everyone, I've been busy sewing out these cutlery holders which I purchased from Embroidery Library. I got a Rooster set from my secret birthday Cutie and decided to make these for my Annual Christmas Ladies luncheon, so I bought the other ones too! I actually made these on the Husqvarna Designer 1 as they are in the 5x7 hoop and would you believe with my new Brother Quattro 6700D machine I collected last Friday there is no 5x7 hoop! So I just rang the shop where I bought it from and have ordered one, may not be available for a couple of weeks, but I'm in no hurry. It was fun having the two machines going on Tuesday when I was testing it out. Music to my ears!!!! Love and blessings Chris
From left to right in back row: Christmas mitten, Lilly, Poinsettia, Santa Claus, Coffee Pot, Snowman, Rooster and Cupcake. As my theme this year is black and silver I made them in just two colours.

They are very neat with the silver on the black. The detail shows well. Will be another elegant table this year.

Thanks for this picture - I think they are all very nice, but I didn't quite understand what it was for :) But it's a great idea

Really cool idea to no do all the applique parts! I imagine sooo much quicker (I did pumpkin ones for today).

I think they would look really great with the applique pieces, but I just wanted them plain for my Christmas lunch. Maybe when I've got some spare time I'll make some with the applique pieces. Love Chris

That was very astute of you. I didn't even query the fact that there wasn't one there, as there was so much other stuff in the boxes. Love Chris
