Greetings cards. I like making cards, but card itself is a bit limiting. These are stitched on artists canvas (I bought a roll which was cheap!) This behaves like card but stitches like fabric so you can use more elaborate designs. I cut the design out wi

Stella's Christmas message? (or is it mine?)Thanks to Bokkieborduur for the inspiration for this one. It is hanging on my kitchen wall. I see it isn't quite straight on the mounting board but that isn't because I'd started on the wine already!

Cross stich cushion. The centrepiece is hand worked cross stitch which I thought would be better used than simply framed. I found it remarkably tricky to stitch the Aida fabric to the thinner cotton but I quite like the finished product.

Reversible Bag. This is Katulle's mask design. The left of the picture is stitched on purple in the multicolour version and the right is stitched in variegated thread on a raspberry colour. I like the purple version best, but my neice can chose to use it

Make do and mend for Christmas. My sister is famous for her mending skills so this new design from Urban Threads came at the right time to make her a Christmas present. The dusky purple fabric is cotton velvet.
