ATELIER SOED IDEE

This afternoon the mailwoman brought me a package from Italy. It was the Seasonal exchange from Claudia , right in time for Christmas! I forget to take a pic before opening everything up (I was to greedy), but it was all beautiful wrapped! Here's everything that was in there: The ornament Claudia made is very ingenious... It's also a Stitchers pocket! The strawberry is even removable, to use as a pincushion. I think it's very clever what Claudia put together and so perfectly finished! It's going to be hard, to come even close to this in our next (Spring) exchange. Thanks again, sweet Claudia!!!

I heard from Tuula that she received my scissorspocket for the Make a Wish exchange. She wished for a scissorspocket and her favourite colors are purple and blue. This is what I made for her: Design: "Red Desert Scissor pocket" from The Cat Whiskers, changed colors Fabric: 32 ct. linen from a grabbag from Silkweaver Floss: "Orb" and "Midnight" silk from Vicky Clayton Finish: Scissor Pocket This afternoon I had all for myself! So I spend it stitching and sewing ;) I've made this little black sheep. Her name is "Sietje". She has rather big ears, but I think she's cute anyway! The pattern is from Bobbins .

First of all: Happy New Year to you all!!! It's a bit late, but DH and DS still had vacation, so I didn't had a chance to spend much time on the computer... But I had a lot of time to stitch and finish! So I can show you a lot: Design: Stitchers' Tray from Maryse Fabric: 32 ct. Jobelan from a grabbag of Silkweaver Floss: DMC 221 Finish: Stitchers' Tray Snowbuddy from Atelier Bep Package of the month "January" Design: "Red Desert Scissor Pocket" from The Cat's Whiskers Fabric: 28 ct.
