Entry bench cover


We have a small bench in our (small) entry that begged slip covers. I've had plans for them for years and finally made the first one. This, of course, will be for Christmas/winter. The first one encompasses the dreaded learning curve, and it definitely was a learning experience. I should try to make others soon so I don't forget what I learned the first time.

Facemasks


Facemasks being the fashion-forward statement for 2020, I made some for Merwin and me as well as some for Leslie and Emelie's families, and one for a friend. I used online tutorials and some of my batik stash.



Mother's Day Cards

I managed to make a a few CCS motifs into Mother's Day cards for Leslie, Emelie and Shirley. I picked charts that were quick to stitch up.

Here's the birthday card I made for Iris. The CCS chart is from Durene Jones.

Embellished t-shirt for Iris

Iris turned 11 in April. She's such a dear, sweetheard that I thought this t-shirt fit her personality. Sonja liked it too and wants me to make one for her.💖 



I modified a machine embroidery design

emblibrary.com and the
