My latest project was to make each of my sister's a pillow for Christmas.
Oh, and above the pillows are the new stockings I made. I needed to make a stocking for Becca, so I made us all a new one. I absolutely love the simplicity of them.
I made the pillows for myself to begin with and then decided to give them away, so the next time I go to Fort Smith I am going to have to purchase some more burlap.
I hung the Merry Christmas quilt above the wood stove in the den.
I decided to show you a couple of handcrafted items I made from scrap quilts.
This one has a wooden base.
This one is all fabric. Both of these have been around for over10 years. I haven't really made much hand crafted items, except quilt-y things, in several years.
Well, tomorrow is going to be a busy day and I still have a few ornaments to stitch for my family.
Happy snipping, stitching and quilting!
Merry Christmas to you - looks like we might possibly get a white one this year! love your decorations - have fun reading - love my kindle too, so many freebies and low price books out there to read
ReplyDeleteVivian I love burlap anything and your stockings & pillows are just wonderful. I may have to try those pillows! I don't have my embroidery machine any more (I'm hoping the person who is test driving it will buy it!) but I could machine applique something similar I think. Merry Christmas! blessings, marlene
