I made a checkbook cover for one of my sister-in-laws and showed it to our 9 year old Granddaughter. She loved it and said her Mom (our daughter) has only an old ugly brown one. So, of course, I made an aqua one for our daughter too. Now looking at the
Eye glass case for another of my brothers. It has felt on the inside. I did this twice - just was not happy with the first try! Thanks for looking - it is so appreciated! Hugs and Merry Christmas, Laura
Here is the passport cover (before being flattened by some heavy books) that I stitched for my sweet hubby. The vinyl is a dark navy blue and tan stitching. The inside looks like the two flaps used to hold the passport are different sizes - but it is jus
Here is a set of Passport Covers I made for one of my brothers and his wife. Under ordinary circumstances (no Covid), they travel a lot. A simple embroidery design I have had for a while. I noticed my hubby looking at them - and now, I know I need to m

I finished the Ring Bearer's Pillow (there may be a second Ring Bearer - but, that isn't a for certain yet). I was scared to do this project - but - it came out better than I expected. I so hope our daughter-in-law to be, will like it! Thanks for you
Question for you! I am about to stitch on 2 hankies and a Ring Bearers Pillow (all three are Linen). I need hints on how to keep my stitches from puckering. I believe starching them will be important. What stabilizer should I use - should I float them
This project had been on hold until the twist clasps came in and I just hadn't felt like stitching this last week. I used a vinyl-type material, that I back with a fusible interfacing to give it some sturdiness as it was very thin. The inside pieces ar

Update: My daughter says Vivian symptoms are mild, thank goodness - headache gone but still low fever and tired. SIL is feeling better but, tires out very easily and has lost his sense of smell. I appreciate your thoughts and prayers for them. I'll ke
