Hi everyone, here is my latest stitching for this week, it is a little ORT bag to place my old ragged threads into when I am stitching.
I am a little unsure if the fabric is a good match for the design but I enjoyed making it.
More photos below.
You can see the post about this free cross stitch pattern here. These photos were initially part of a tutorial for my cross stitch finishing blog but the photos were wrong as I stitched it and then had to redo it in parts, hopefully I will make another one soon so that I can get the tutorial completed.
I have been tidying my tutorials blog to make it easier to navigate, it is worth checking it out as you may see something worth making.
Stitching News
I am currently stitching the Summer project and hope to get that finished soon and I only just remembered I have two cottages to finish on Santa's Village that I started last year, hopefully that should be finished in time for Christmas this year!
I have completed a RAK last week and sent it out to an unsuspecting contributor of the Random Act of Kindness Blog so that should arrive soon.
Update re Mother
Thankyou for all of your good wishes regarding Mother, she is doing well now, walking around a little and she has had the plaster removed from her arm, she still cannot do any crafting at the moment and this is driving her crazy but she is certainly getting better.
She has not really ventured out of her home yet but her confidence is improving every day. She sends her thanks to you all for the kind wishes received.
Until next time.........Happy Stitching!
It is so good to hear your mom is getting stronger each day - she will be back to her crafting in no time!! Love your thread catcher.
