Colonial Houses

 

Finally have the Machine Embroidery disc ready of the Colonial Houses and it looks soooo good.

It even has 3 sizes of all 6 houses and the trees can be separated as well, so I am envisaging little rows of pruned shrubs and trees as borders. You could create your own garden around the houses... make little coasters and placemats, frame them or make into a Heritage quilt. Click on the above image for more.

Ok back to stitching the High Tea

Golden Crinoline Scissor Fob

Isn't she gorgeous, measuring 3½x4½". I've used her as a fob for my little gold embroidery scissors. The crinoline is featured on the cover of the new Crinoline China, so I will include one with every purchase of the booklet. Otherwise she can be purchased for $8 on the website.

Now I can put her back in my embroidery bag, such little thrills we embroiders get, beautiful scissors and a good looking crinoline girl fob so I can spot my scissors easily.

More Crinolines Pre-Printed

Just packaged up some single pre-printed Cottage & Crinoline girls for the website at $12 each. Ideal gift for a Crinoline enthusiast. The pattern cover has a b/w drawing but the stitching colours are all listed.

March Freebie

Here's March free pre-printed stitchery to go with all orders. A crinoline lady to complement the little Victorian house of last month. Lots more on this theme, great to stitch and make into a small project for a friend.

Crinoline China now available

Just received the Crinoline China booklets back from the printers and the girls look great. First copies will go out to the pre-orders, so make sure to secure your copy today. Here's a sneak peak

The book can now be purchased here

Back to stitching the March freebie of a little crinoline lady.

PS don't forget to use this month's voucher before the end of February.

New POM

Two stitcheries of cups. This one is called Jessica after my dear mum. Currently making it into a cute cup bag with this gorgeous Japanese fabric.

TeaTime

Another Tea inspired stitchery with a cute saying suitable for a friend. Had this unstitched for a year or two so it felt good to finish another U.F.O. Making it into a sweet cushion using shabby chic fabrics.

Cupcake Maker

Picked up the rubbish mail to take to the bin and noticed a whacky new electrical product.

A cup cake maker, what next, I need to go out more. There are things happening in the retail world that I have no knowledge about. It only makes 6 cupcakes and we all know that amount won't even make it to the table.

To celebrate this enlightenment, I have drawn a new cupcake for you to download.

Its a healthy option cupcake with a Strawberry and a Kiwi fruit slice on top. Maybe Strawberry Icing with little fruity chips on top.

Feel inspired to Bake or Stitch ?

New stitchery

Another cat stitchery has been completed using the 'Blessed Cats' button pack. Complete with porcelain china dogs and a bowl of roses on the mantelpiece, sewing machine, comfy chair, fireplace, teaset and cake on the ottoman. My dream working space really.

I've provided a window sill and the mantelpiece so those of you that love the cat buttons have a opportunity to create chaos with the cats in the lounge room. Available to purchase here
