More Baby Stuff






There seems to be a rash of baby showers in the neighborhood, so I've done tons of little baby items. I love the burp rags and especially love the applique. It was the first time I had ever done applique. I love the look of it - they are my favorite by far.

Paper Embroidery













So, embroidering on paper was something I always wanted to do, but never dared to try. I finally took a shot at it and it turned out ok. I am going to try mulberry paper next. I am sure if I get working right away I can make all 170 Christmas cards by next season.

Valentine's Day




Some quick V-Day decor and a reason to try out 4D Cross Stitcher. Turned out ok. I did it on canvas instead of trying to line up stiches on regular cross stitch fabric. See, this is what owning an embroidery machine is all about! Fast, quick decorations. I just spray glued it to some red backer board since it wasn't meant to be too fancy.
