Cross Stitch FINISHED

 

ENJOY

Finally finished this baby.     Now on to my quilts.

 

Back

Small Project Finished

 

This is a better photo with the new camera ......     The lighting isn't that great in my studio for photos,  so I have to turn the light off in order for the quilting to show

 

Back -  need to fill in with line is the motif 

 

Worked on finishing up a few projects that were laying around......   This is the Christmas stocking  I designed to go with the Christmas quilt that I'm still piecing.     In fact these socks will go with any quilt.    Fun and easy to make.    Used wool batting and muslin for quilting.

 

Dupioni silk

 

Added a few crystals for a little bling

 

If you would like the pattern just email me and  I will it to you.

The lining is muslin.....   which you could use anything.    I'm going to do a floral arrangement with these.    My DIL  begging me for a pair.    I making extras up to sell. 

 

Wait until you see this one finished.......    I bought the kit at the Quilt Expo

Have to apply a few  little applique,  ribbon,  and  crystals.   This usually is not my thing to do for quilting  but when I saw this,  I just had to make one to hang in the house.    Stay tuned ........ 

 

My loft sewing room

Last night I was going to  finish the walls and get the shelf hung  but  just had to stop to work on those few UFO projects.    An old dresser or buffet that I found at a garage sale down home.    Didn't know how I was going it,  then a light when off,   this would make a great cutting table plus storage. 

Will paint this a gloss white

Antique drawing table with light box ....   Painted a gloss white

The chair goes to the upholster in a couple of weeks,  that also will be painted white.

 

Now I need to get busy and finish putting this room together.
