Bib and bapron Used some remnants to make these. The fronts are made from the back of one of my SiL's discarded shirts, the backs from two different scraps of flanel. I only had a small amount of biastape left, so I lined the bapron instead of bin

New Year's resolution. I decided to use up all bits and pieces of yarn and do something about my fabric stash as well. Here's what I did in a month before the cross stitch bug bit me: 2 crochet baby blankets and 8 crochet hats plus one cheater p

Golden Rod in cross stitch. Stitched out this design I made a fortnight ago. Looks pretty, doesn't it. Well, it would be nice done by hand. However, there are too many unconnected stitches to make it a nice design for machine embroidery. I hat

After stitching lines of proverbs and poetry for hours on end I HAD to do something else and digitised this Clipartopolis design, bird and flowers. I don't particularly like the size of the head compared to the body, but think it's nonetheless quite swe

Bookmarks The one on the left I made some 40 years ago. It was an Eva Rosenstrand design. The one on the right I made today, by machine. What gives the game away is the machine stitch I used to secure the fringe. The design stitched in 13

Campanula. Another addition to my springflowers (and to my notebook covers). It stitches in 7 minutes. I used cotton embroidery thread (DMC and Anchor) from the early 70s when I did a lot of freehand machine embroidery. It has a nice mat shine and
