There has also been a whole lot of sewing related stuff going on over on my new spangly website...Did I tell you I'd had a re-do?! I've gone all fancy pants and got a rotating photograph and all! oh lala! Here is the link!
With the introduction of my embroidery kits, I wanted to create a little online sewing classroom which offered links to the sewing related tutorials I've done, and pdf's to download. A great place for those who are new to embroidery and a little nervous! There are some free embroidery patterns too which you won't have seen before:
Last on the sewing front is a new kit without the "Frills" which I've added to my etsy shop (here).
Unlike the other embroidery kits I showed you recently, this kit comes minus the packaging and guides/instructions, needle and embroidery hoop. I liked the idea of this as it not only makes it cheaper, but also giving the freedom to stitch with your own choice of colours and stitches, and letting you use your already existing large pile of embroidery supplies! The finished piece fits a 4" hoop. Sweet!
Phew! I think that's enough stitchery news for one day.......time to dive into that cushion mound x
Love the little quilt, maybe make mini cushions from the owls? No idea what they'd be used for but they might be quite cute XD
ReplyDelete:) Thanks Chloe......ah yes! My daughter could use mini cushions for her toys!..she's got as many dolls as I have owly bits! x

Deleteoh i looooove the new sewing kits!!!!
ReplyDeleteReally impressive. I'm always inspired embroidery but feel that I may lack the patience to apply myself properly. I love your colour combinations.
ReplyDeleteHi Emma, thanks for your visit and lovely comment. I'm not so sure you need patience to embroider (my kids would certainly argue that I have none!), but rather the simple desire to do something while you would normally veg out and relax! I love it as many an evening is spent snuggled on the couch stitching away and watching a movie, I've knitted and crocheted before as a substitute but would always end up miscounting my rows! I hope you give it a go to see :)
