Presents for a big sister - Leia Blaidd and her new little sister Lili Wyn. The bag was made from a scrap of organic cotton and the design was done ages ago. I made Leia a similar present when she was born three years ago. She too has lovely blond hair l

From the original idea to getting started has taken ages and ages. Bit the bullet and did this cushion today as I’m meeting the person I have made it for as a present for their new home or maybe to celebrate moving in a year ago. Font is Scriptina stitc

Been having a bit of fun. The smaller mat was made maybe nearly two years go. Now having a machine with a bigger hoop I increased the design from 195x195 mm to 230x230mm. Not used my PE11 to increase before though when using PE8 it was something I often d

I am on a roll with the personalised tea towels. Gardening club meeting tonight and we each take a raffle prize. This was my offering. My friend Beth was delighted to win it. Can’t remember the font. Thanks for looking

Fresh out of the embroidery frame. My lovely next door neighbours recently moved and we now have Kim and family next door. We have been invited to a house warming so have embroidered a tea towel with their address (which is blanked out)

Tea towel made as a gift for my cousins birthday from a EL design. It needed a good iron but as it was off in the post it didn’t happen. Thanks for looking

Design from EL. It’s a while since I assembled a card and I appear to have lost my skills but the recipient was delighted with it. Need to improve my card assembling skills. Thanks for looking

Another very wet and windy day so a good time to experiment. This key ring isn’t finished nor is it perfect but it has been such fun to do. Mix of leather, suede and fabric. I’m now off to embroider mark 2 and ignore the weather outside. The design fi

Tea towel for my cousins birthday. I used a organic cotton tea towel bought from my local fabric shop and a Embroidery Library design. If I sew the design again I will use a paler grey thread first so that the contrast will show as it certainly isn’t

Playmat for Darwin. My dear friend who I had many fun times with as a teenager recently became a grandmother to Darwin. I have had a huge amount of fun making this with a selection of animals and animal fabrics. Nothing new has been bought for the making

Quick gift. My lovely neighbour has her mum staying for a few days. These facecloths are a small gift for the little boys that live next to her. As the boys are small I have embroidered one name at the top and the other at the bottom and used different co

Taggy blankets. I just love making these. Almost caught up with the backlog while my V3 was at the dealers. All of them have the same backing of a very jolly unisex fabric with dashing knights and princesses in towers plus some dragons. Thanks for lookin

Cushion for a friend Grandson. The fabric has more ‘texture’ to it than I usually embroider on but I thought I would try it out. It’s not the best bit of work that I have done. The design is from Embroidery Library and I added in Welsh the animal n

I have embroidered this UT design a number of times. Bag made from wool suiting and extras from me. Over the past 18 months many in the UK are trying where ever possible to shop locally. I have made this as a gift. Most of my work is made as gifts for a
