This was a free kit from The World of Cross Stitching magazine....such a cute design! My plan had been to make my own card, but I ran out of time and ended up using the card supplied with the kit - so much quicker!
Then I finished up one of the ornies that had been sitting in my to-do pile all summer long....
The little hedgehog stitchings were made into cards....the picture isn't great as it was late at night when I remembered to take the photo!
I also finished the knitted scarf, which turned out fabulously! (well, I think so anyway!)
I couldn't really get a good photograph of it, but you can at least see the wonderful pattern and colour changes. I made it into an infinity scarf and was planning on giving it to my son's girlfriend.....but I'm tempted to keep it for myself! :) Maybe that's why I'm on Santa's naughty list!!!
I also managed to make some little embroidered gifts.
I little mug cosy and matching coaster.
And a second one in bright pink...
And the little butterfly button looks adorable on this, don't you think?
I just have to add some more edible goodies to these gifts and then two more pressies are completed.
Phew!
Well, no rest for the wicked as they say! I still have a few little finishes to get done before Christmas....wish me luck (and a few extra hours in the day!)
Thanks for stopping by at this busy time of the year. I appreciate all the comments.
Until next time....happy stitching!
