Friday Finishing #2

 So far my plans for finishing stitched projects from last year are going well. Each week I take a look in the little basket sitting on the shelf in my craft room/office and pull out something to "finish" when I get to my sewing machine on a Friday afternoon. 

My latest finished objects are:

Christmas Typography by Pine Mountain Designs - stitched on 32 count white Belfast linen using most of the recommended DMC threads. I purchased this chart as a PDF download from the Fat Quarter shop website. 

Made into a small ditty bag, this will be the perfect size for a small Christmas stitching project.

Next up, minus buttons and the hanger, is Spirit of Christmas, a red work stitchery by Natalie Bird, the Birdhouse Designs.

The pre-printed design panel came with the pattern and I used DMC 321 thread. 

I haven't done very much red work stitching lately but have a few designs all traced out ready to go when I feel like working on some.

Many thanks for stopping by - see you soon xx

Christmas Ornament finishing

My little pile of stitched ornaments has finally received some attention. These have been stitched throughout the year, mostly over our winter months, Sundays (santasundayxs) and Mondays (merrymondayxs), which are stitch alongs on Instagram.

Cool Yule by Hands on Designs - I used the recommended DMC threads on black 32 count belfast linen.

Chicken Joy, a free design by Priscilla and Chelsea, Stitching with the Housewives, I also used black belfast linen with most of the recommended threads.

Warm Wishes is a design by Lizzie Kate from Tiny Tidings XVIII, stitched on cream linen using recommended threads.

Be Jolly is by Hands on Designs and is from the Chalkboard Ornaments - Christmas Collection Part 1, stitched on 32 count black belfast linen.

Be Jolly by Pine Mountain Designs I stitched on 32 count vintage mocha belfast linen using the recommended threads.

 There are still several more to finish, which I'm working on right now.  

See you soon x

Christmas Typography

Christmas Typography by Pine Mountain Designs was a Jolly July 2020 start and I finished it last week.

 

I used the recommended DMC threads and white linen.

Some of the Pine Mountain designs can be purchased from the Fat Quarter Shop as PDFs, yay, so you can start stitching straight away!

See you soon xx
