Hi Cuties, I've been making a beautiful Poinsettia coaster today digitised by our Kim. Thanks Kim, it was amazing to sew out - perfectly digitised and it looks amazing.. 1 down 7 to go!!! I'm making them for my Christmas ladies luncheon. It's been a perfect day here and would you believe it was 24C and it's Winter. Love Chris

Chris, these are lovely applique poinsettia coasters for your ladies Christmas luncheon. You always find the greatest things to make for your friends. Keep it up.

Nice job on it. Colours are perfect nice and bright and cheerful for our very bright hot Christmas.

Thanks Sandra, I can't wait to get them all done. I'm running out of time fast! I can't believe it's near the pointy end of the month already. Love Chris

Oh, Chris...it is BEAUTIFUL!! Love your choice of fabrics and thread...So glad my design stitched out well for you...I do think the many color stops for the applique fabric and stitching are well worth the effort!

Thanks Kim, your design is fantastic. I realised I didn't put the third piece of fabric in but it still came out o.k. Thanks so much, love Chris

Thanks, Chris...there are two designs...one uses two pieces of fabric and the other uses three pieces...depending upon what you choose...your poinsettia is stunning!

Thanks so much Sonja, love Chris

Fabulous poinsettia! Your work is meticulous and your attention to detail is wonderful! The use of poinsettia fabric really adds depth to it and was a brililant idea. The ladies are going to love it. Are you going to use it as table decoration? Or like a gift for the attendees?

Hi Penny, yes, these are part of the table decorations. My theme is Poinsettias this year. I've got some other things for the ladies still to do and am running out of time. We are off to Italy in September and at the moment we are renovating the house. So I'm trying to do as much as I can before we go away. Love Chris

So beautiful!

Thanks Vicki, there are 19 steps in this applique project, but only about 18,000 stitches. Love Chris

Beautiful! Just beautiful Chris and Kim. I always love the traditional red and green for Christmas.

Thanks Toogie, yes, me too. I was so pleased as the red fabric is actually Poinsettia fabric, the green is holly and berries! Love Chris

This is absolutely beautiful. Love poinsettias for the holidays. Such a pretty pop of color. They would also make lovely gifts to tuck inside a Christmas card or attach to a gift. Great job. Hugs, Susan
