Anyone up for some colouring in? The artwork for these new art deco style designs was supplied by my lovely friend Lynda Martin. The plaques have a CD inside, but the design could also be used as an applique. My J-club ladies are going to make these at ou
I was challenged to make this by a good friend i have never met (yes, another Cutie!) I'm not even sure what to call it.<br /><br /> Any way, it was made entirely in the hoop with the exception of one seam in the lining and the final closure on the pi
Following quite a few requests, I have revised my cat and dog ITH purse designs. They are now available from Engineered in Stitches for 130mm x 180mm and 160mm x 260mm hoops. There is an option to have a concealed zip or an exposed one.
A quick tote bag with 3D flower applique (made to avoid wasting the flowers I made to test the design!) The flowers are denim with a print fabric back so could also be used on stems, layered up.
I thought this article was very well explained - and it applies to embroidery designs in exactly the same way!
More 12th scale fun.
Second attempt at an ITH quilt for a dolls house. This time I've stitched thin wire into the edges so it looks "draped". I've also included pictures of the bedroom curtains , some 12th scale knitting and a rag rug.
I was challenged to make a dolls house quilt with hexagons "in the hoop" of an embroidery machine. This is my first. It measures 10cm by 12cm and the hexagons are coloured with Inktense pencils. The major problem with dolls house quilts is that they

It is a long time since I shared a video here, but I thought you might like to see my poor old dog enjoying herself in the snow. She was 13 on Wednesday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V...
I'm supposed to be reorganising my sewing room but I just couldn't not sew! These are my attempts at colouring in with Inktense pencils. Rose is the current free design at UT and the scissors were from EL. I have no idea what I will do with them!
A5 notebook cover - stipple quilted and fully lined so that it can even be reversible!
I had heard so many good things about Sweet Pea designs that I decided to join the mystery quilt project. I bought the first design last month and tried it. I added extra stitch lines of my own so that it could be made ITH. Although there were a few
A little quitlet to cover a glass panel in my airing cupboard door. (60 cm x 110 cm including the bunting.) Pieced quilted, backed and joined in the hoop, the backing was finished by hand. (Picture for Kim!)
I loved mariagiannina's table runner (see link) so I had to see if I could come up with an ITH version. I used a batik kaftan as a source of fabric and was a bit limited as to how I could use it. My runner was made in 4 sections, joined and backed in
