September Smalls challenge

Here at last is my cross stitched ornament using some nice variegated DMC threads, and bobbin lace I made to decorate the edge. This was a simple pattern by a lovely woman called Christine Springett from the UK.
Not the best finishing, but at least it can go on the tree!!

Now to check all my friends efforts!

June Smalls challenge


Here it is at last, a plastic canvas Christmas decoration. Great to have the challenge to actually finish anything.

Last weekend I started a small reticella project (my first in this type of embroidery). Having fun with that, hopefully my first finish in this type of project will become a pin cushion!

Another cute little design, I love my needlework tools so this is an apt project for me!!

Meanwhile, I have started a new lace piece with some interesting new stitches, and have been working away at a beautiful embroidery piece of roses by Dimensions.
