Simple tablecloth

 I love to make these table cloths for this little round table on our deck. I can enjoy changing it out in season. We nearly always come in the house from the back door, and this table is there for me to see and enjoy. It's a great way to use and display fabrics that I love but don't have another use for.

Quilt Label

I made this quilt label for a friend's quilt. The machine embroidery is attached to a partially completed quilt block. The quilt is a Baltimore Album.

This is her beautiful quilt.

Prayer shawl

This is a prayer shawl that I finished recently and was given to a friend who has been diagnosed with cancer. I had two skeins of this Caron Jumbo yarn (color, Country Basket). I don't know for sure if I had the same dye lot for both skeins, but I do usually check that. For some reason, the pattern of the variegation was completely different in the two skeins. I've never seen that before. I wasn't too pleased with it, but it is what it is. Curious!

August and September pillowcases

More pillowcases for Julia and Sonja ...

I forgot to take pictures of the July pillowcases.
This is Julia's ... in use!

Cross stitch anniversary card

 Here's a cross stitch anniversary card I made for Leslie and Anders.

This one was for Emelie and Matthias' anniversary.

Husky sweatshirt

 Merwin needed a new sweatshirt and this is the style he likes, so I machine embroideried a Washington Husky on it for him.

Machine embroidery Valentine ornaments

 Here are some Valentine ornaments I will be hanging on the stone behind our gas stove. The machine embroidery designs are Mehndi Hearts from Designs by JuJu. I stitched them on white felt with silver flecks, stitching one forward and one backward then sewing the two pieces together and stuffing them.
